There is an endless variety of dishes where vegetables and meat are combined to make one main course. I prefer to cook such dinners because a side dish is not necessary and I don’t have to spend any more time in the kitchen. Such combinations are very nutritious too.
A week or two ago I got home late from work and had little time to cook dinner. I checked my fridge to find I only had a few things on hand. Fortunately I remembered coming across this blog recently and since I had ever thing I needed, I decided to make it.
