The Best One-Pot Dinner Recipes

Let’s be real, meal prep sounds cute until it’s Sunday night and you’re staring at a sink full of dishes, wondering why you thought cooking for the whole week was a good idea. I’ve been there. That’s exactly why I started creating easy, flavorful one-pot dinners that get you fed fast without turning your kitchen upside down.
