Hi Reader -- The days are cooling down (sometimes - it's currently humid as can be), my girls are back in school, and Labor Day weekend is upon us.

Hi Reader, I feel like high-protein dinners get a bad reputation for being a little boring. Plain chicken, rice, repeat. But there are so many better ways to do it. A lot of cozy favorites can get you there pretty easily, especially when chicken, beef, beans, or a hearty soup is involved!
