Last year, I made seven-layer bars for my birthday and delivered them to people. The year before that, I made the world’s saddest attempt at a lemon cake, which was honestly pretty fitting for a birthday at the very beginning of lockdown when there was basically nothing available in the grocery stores, and going shopping

I realize it’s the middle of January, but it’ll eventually be time for the holidays again, and even now, on January 20th, 2021, it’s a bit of a holiday in and of itself. Instead of being picky about the exact time of year, let’s all agree that there’s never really a bad time to enjoy

Don’t let the ingredient list fool you, this recipe is super easy, super healthy, and super filling. It can also easily be converted into a vegetarian recipe by swapping out the chicken for some extra firm or firm tofu. Make it vegan with a cheese substitute. When we make this recipe (as I try to
