am constantly looking for ways to reinvent the wheel. Especially in the kitchen! I have some go-to meals that we might make every week or some recipes that I use more often than others. Since I cook soups every weekend it is almost a given that something is bound to be repeated. And if
y husband recently started a new workout program and is strictly following the meal plan that goes with it. Which is making it harder for me to put together meals.
