The words healthy, easy, tasty, and quick are rarely used in the same sentence when it comes to a weeknight dinner. I get it. I'm on the 'It's Only Wednesday Struggle Bus' today too. Whenever I have no idea what to have for dinner, I, always choosing the most productive route, go on Pinterest. Today was no exception except, most of the time I never make the food I pin. Today I actually made a Pinterest meal. I finally did what others only dream of. It was healthy, easy, tasty, quick and then some. So, hop of that struggle bus. Seriously. Right now.
