Who can’t relate to this: You come home exhausted and hungry (!) after a long day at work and someone (or yourself) asks: “What’s for dinner?”
And even though I’m usually not far from home when working #homeoffice – or rather, I’m usually already in the kitchen and working on a new recipe for you – sometimes even I don’t feel like cooking a big fancy meal anymore. But then again: What’s for dinner (or lunch)? The answer is Vegan Cauliflower Bake.
