It’s perfect for a late work night or when you can’t be bothered to put in much effort, but don’t want to sacrifice on nutrition or flavor. It’s also great the next day reheated for lunch, so be sure to make a big enough batch for leftovers!

It’s also super festive with the red and green colors — see the thing of beauty below!
