Like many of you, my husband and I have tried to adjust to a “stay at home” life. We haven’t left our home unless it’s to the grocery store and even then we limit our trips to way less than before the quarantine. In fact, recently Google Maps told me about my month of travel and the actual highlight (and only place I’d been) was the grocery store. Needless to say the cooking is a little different lately.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner.  Sorry, I had to go there. This chicken and rice dish is very easy and quick to put together.  All you need to do is chop up a few veggies, throw everything into a baking dish, and pop it in the oven.  I love one pan recipes because it means that I don’t have to wash a lot of dishes.  It’s the little victories.

This is the kind of comfort food dish that you make on the weekend. Think Swedish meatballs meets a casserole and that’s what we’ve got going on here today. Nifty, right? I tend to prefer casseroles in the winter time. Maybe it’s because they tend to be heavier and ideal for cold nights. Which means if you’re counting calories then save this recipe for a day when calories don’t count (like the weekend or on vacation 😉 ). As a heads up, this recipe takes a bit of time to make, which is the real reason why I suggest making …
