There comes a time in just about everybody’s life when you realize making a good meal doesn’t really have to require making a big mess.
Of course, elaborate dishes are fun to make on special occasions like the holidays or when you have extra time on the weekends, but the last thing I want to do when I get back from work is make a crazy dish and then have to clean it up.
One solution to this would be to batch cook on the weekend – translating to making large portions of different foods like veggies, proteins, and grains to quickly whip up together throughout the week – but even this can sometimes seem like a big undertaking. Instead, why not make small meals that require only one dish – a mug?! Yay, less dishes!
You’ll be surprised by how much you can really make when you just throw things together and caution to the wind. Mug cakes are pretty popular, but what about the savory dishes? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Take a look at some of our favorite mug recipes below!
