    chicken spaghetti with spinach

    One dish dinners.

    They scream simplicity.  They scream ease. And they scream quick.

    5 ingredients.  Most of which you likely already have in your pantry and freezer.

    20-ish minutes. Or however long it takes you to cook the spaghetti and then toss it with the other ingredients.

    You could serve it with a side of bread, or simple side salad – but it really doesn’t need it!
