Why You Will Love This Easy Skillet Meal
If you love a simple but delicious dish, this is one for you! Easy to make, not a lot of prep work and so good! We love the cajun seasoning in this dish, but you can easily switch it up to suit your taste. Yes, we make this dish in bacon grease because it gives it a wonderful flavor. Then we crumble some on top and that just takes it all up another level!
Easy Swaps and Additions
We love a simple and versatile dish and this is one you can easily make your own. Switch up the seasoning at any time. We love all types of seasonings, and you can add whatever you like. We use fire-roasted tomatoes; if you have just regular diced tomatoes, that will work too. You can use frozen vegetables and you don’t need to thaw them. You could add peas, green beans, etc to this dish. I also think this would be wonderful served over rice. Throw in some ground beef if you like for a complete meal.
