One Pot Wonder: Chicken Lo Mein

You’ve probably seen the one pot meals floating around the internet, praised for the simplicity of cooking everything in one pot (even the pasta, gasp!), and touted as being simply delicious.

Creamy Sun-dried Tomato Pasta with Chicken recipe

This dish was inspired by my pantry. I’ll admit, there’s enough food stocked in our pantry to last a good long while through an apocalypse. I was in there the other day and saw a bag of sun-dried tomatoes that had been sitting around for a while and thought, “I should use those.” So I looked […]
