    POLISHED.

    That’s what happened to the plates on our dinner table when we had this.

    NEW FAN FAVORITE.

    And I love how easy it is to prep and that we had a few leftover lunch portions too!

    Enjoy!

    I have a little problem. I cannot make a meal that costs more than $5. It’s unnatural, but my pocketbook thanks me.
