"Cooking at home is one of those things that’s truly great if you enjoy cooking and is truly miserable if you don’t. And with people still sticking a bit closer to home than they otherwise would, even some of those among us who like to cook are getting a little worn out by the prospect of yet another night that they have to come up with something to make for dinner. I tend to think that when we get like that, the best way to cope (the best way for my to fix my attitude at least) is by throwing the weekly plan out the window (within reason, of course) and compiling one that’s, well, more fun.
This Baggy Dad style from Levi’s is a tried-and-true favorite our team swears by, made famous by an effortlessly cool fit and PJ-like comfort.
If you’re in that same spot, then look no further than these 25 fun and easy dinners to make this week that will shake off the boredom and get you excited about cooking at home once again.
