One pot meals make clean up so easy. The chicken we get from Shopease Foods is so lean I really do not have any fat to cut off of them. Making meal prep so much easier since I just have to thaw my meat and start preparing my meal. The temperatures cooled off a bit for the day so I decided to cook on my stove since I knew it wouldn't heat up the house.
