This is one of my hubby’s fave weeknight meals!

 

  • Double the Recipe: This dish reheats beautifully, making it excellent for meal prep. Consider doubling the ingredients to have extra portions for lunch the next day or for quick dinners later in the week.
  • Switch Up the Protein: This recipe is incredibly versatile! Feel free to use whatever protein you have on hand or prefer. Shrimp, cooked sausage, or even plant-based options like lentils or chickpeas work great too. Adjust cooking times accordingly.
  • Add Greens: For an extra nutrient boost and vibrant color, toss in a few handfuls of fresh spinach or chopped kale during the last few minutes of cooking. Stir until wilted.
  • Spice It Up: If you love heat, feel free to adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your liking, or add a dash of your favorite hot sauce at the end for an extra kick.
  • Drain Tomatoes: For a thicker sauce, you can partially drain the diced tomatoes before adding them to the skillet.
