Mom, You’re Going To Love This.
If you’re anything like me, there’s nothing worse than being stuck at work not knowing what to do for lunch.
By the time for lunch rolls around, you’re ready to eat just about anything, and at that point, good decisions go out the window.
Sound familiar? Yup, me too.
The best solution to save us all is to just create a way where we can have a guess free lunch when that time rolls around!
The recipe below definitely makes PLENTY for the whole family to enjoy more than once.
