I like this recipe because you can customize it however you want! The boyfriend and I are trying to eat healthier so I started to cook at home. He absolutely loves this. It's also super filling and you can just refrigerate the left overs or freeze them for later.

Have a bottle of white wine I'm hoping to use to make my own vinaigrette for this recipe so I don't have to use the sodium-filled sauce mix.
