And it just so happens that I have a phenomenal dinner inspiration which not only tastes great but is also very easy to prepare. What's more, the whole process is very quick, so it's an ideal idea for dinner both in the middle of a busy week and an express weekend meal when you just want to relax and recharge for the week ahead.
