What do you get when you combine an empty belly and a very bare fridge? Often times at my house, you get #strangebutgood.

Without having a lot on hand to work with, I basically just threw together some random ingredients that sounded like they might work. The result was shockingly delicious! This happy little accident has since been one of my go-to quick and easy meals. It is often in my weekly meal prep rotation, as it makes for an easy lunch at work.

While I have gotten numerous comments on how yummy it looks and smells (garlic + Parmesan always = win), I have also gotten some stares from picky less experimental eaters. So, I’m filing this one under #strangebutgood, and participating in the link-up love! See more on Laura’s page!
