## Ingredients

*(Adjust based on your specific recipe, but here’s a general idea)*

* Protein of choice (chicken tenders, ground beef, or tofu)
* Quick-cooking veggies (like bell peppers, spinach, or frozen peas)
* Simple seasoning (garlic, salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs)
* A ready-made sauce or homemade shortcut sauce (think jarred marinara, soy sauce mix, or honey mustard)
* Optional starch (rice, pasta, or bread)

## How I Make It Fast

1. **Prep smart:** I use pre-cut veggies or frozen ones to save chopping time.
2. **One-pan or one-pot:** Fewer dishes means less cleanup later.
3. **Quick cook:** High heat and small pieces speed up cooking.
4. **Sauce it up:** A quick sauce brings everything together with minimal fuss.

## Why I Love It

This meal isn’t just about saving time—it’s about sharing a dish my husband really enjoys without stress. It’s a reminder that cooking doesn’t have to be complicated to be meaningful. Sometimes, the best meals are the simple ones you can make quickly and still savor together.
