Back-to-School season is in full swing, and that means busy nights, new schedules to get used to and lots and lots of meal prep for school lunches, breakfast (aka power fuel) and of course dinner. Dinnertime swings around and the phrase “What’s for dinner?” can leave the cook-of-the-house in a panic to get something delicious, healthy and easy on the table in a flash. Well even though I do not have kids of my own, I absolutely remember that dinnertime rush, and I see it with my family and friends who have school-aged kids. Things can get crazy! And that is why I reached out to my blogger friends from FindingVegan and asked them to contribute an easy, fast, relatively healthy and delicious meal!
