    Let’s face it, cooking for one can be a challenge! I deal with that myself every single day! So many singles opt to grab fast food, restaurant takeout, or less than healthy convenience foods. But cooking for one can be easy. Especially when you have super simple recipes that you can turn to instead! I always recommend having 10-20 easy recipes that you can turn to that are simple to prepare. Those that don’t require a lot of prep time will help you to eat healthier home-cooked meals more often.

At the same time, I enjoy maximizing my time and so I want to be able to eat amazing home-cooked meals without spending hours in the kitchen…even though my kitchen is pretty cute! So I love simple recipes like this cheddar bacon ranch chicken recipe. This…
