Easy Recipes to Cook During Coronavirus

Happy Monday my loves! Hope you are all having a productive week at home and staying healthy! It’s a new week and as we’re all continuing to navigate around this pandemic, it’s important that we’re consuming a ton of nutrients and spending a lot of time in the kitchen! These days the simple comforts of cooking at home have really been important to me and it honestly feels so good to be spending time in the kitchen and cooking my own meals. Now of course having to cook every single meal means I’m having to do a lot more research and seek out inspiration from real home cooks ha! So to start the week off, I thought I’d share some of my favorite recipes that are on my list for this week’s meals for G, Ale and I!
