Five Recipes for Easy Clean-Up

Rob started traveling to Charlotte for work every week almost a month ago and I immediately turned into a small monster, watching marathon sessions of Gossip Girl and The Office while eating microwaved hot dogs off of paper towels. I don't know why, but cooking for one suddenly sounded like the lamest, most complicated use of my time, and instead of having to clean up the kitchen and do any dishes, I thought it would be easier to just start eating like a really strange college student.

The truth is that I love to cook, I just tend to be a little lazy sometimes. A couple of weeks ago, I used some PAM when grilling those peaches with goat cheese and honey, and it was a quick but beautiful one-dish recipe that cleaned up so easily, so this week I decided to do a little round-up from my recipe collection to remind myself that there are plenty of things to cook that don't make a huge mess.  Most of them only require one dish or pan (and only two of them are wrapped in bacon)!

Grilled Peaches with Goat Cheese & Honey // Paleo Pigs in a Blanket // Easy Lemon-Garlic Broccoli // Paleo Chocolate Candy Bars // Bacon-Wrapped Avocados

Now you (read: I) have no excuse. Put that hot dog down--it's time to cook something!

Leaving up to 99% less residue, PAM is your ally in the kitchen and allows you to save time during prep and clean up.
