Easy Skillet Meal
I love an easy skillet meal. Dinner is easier when it is made in one pan. In the past, we have shared a few skillet meals, like Cajun Pork Skillet Meal and Asian Pork Chops Skillet Meal. We even make an Easy Skillet Frittata that is a low-cost dinner as well as an easy skillet meal.
What makes this skillet meal so fantastic is that it is so easy to make. As summer comes to an end and fall starts, there are so many delicious vegetables that are coming into season. Those vegetables come together so well in this one-skillet meal that you will be looking for every produce stand and farmer’s market you can find in order to make this dish often.
