Healthy One Pot Meals – Ingredients to have on hand

Some ingredients that are good to have on hand for one pot meals:

• Protein – Ground beef, ground turkey, and chicken are all incredibly versatile. We love getting our meat delivered from Butcher Box which is so convenient because we don’t have to go to the store or look out for sales to get the best prices on great quality meat.
• Rice – Quick to cook, cheap, and a great complex carb that goes with any meal.
• Spices – Spices can take bland chicken and veggies to a flavorful meal!
• Canned Tomatoes – They can be used in skillets, soups, sauce, chili + more!
• Frozen Vegetables – Green beans, cauliflower rice & broccoli are great.
