How many of you have been eating less meat or cut it out all together these days? If you watch my stories, you know I have been doing that and playing more and more with recipes that don’t include meat. Not 100% meat free yet but I’m working on it.
I’ve used some of the new ingredients to make this healthy lunch recipe that you can meal prep and reheat through the week for lunch. (You’ve probably seen me meal prep this in stories) It’s so yummy and the whole family will love it.
Life’s recipes all include ingredients that come together to make something bigger right. Well the Shop Rite brand is now Bowl & Basket, and it includes a delicious collection of ingredients and thoughtfully crafted food that have premium taste. If you have a Shop Rite stores near you, visit them and check out this new line. I’m loving everything the collection offers and I know you will too. Find more info at ShopRite.com
