1893. Rice Stuffed Chicken Legs


I don't think that anything roasted necessarily falls under the category of a quick meal, but if you prep this chicken in advance, you can pop it in the oven when you get home, and an hour later you've got an easy, nutritious, and delicious meal ready.

1890. SD Discard Cheese Mint Galette


The week after I made the SD zaatar galette, I still didn't need to restock my sourdough freezer stash, so I made another galette, this time cheese with dry mint and olives. A properly heated pan even without the toxic teflon coating become naturally nonstick, so do not skim on pre-heating time.
