We are just suckers for efficiency. Any time we can hack something and save ourselves precious moments for self-care, Netflix, or more ridiculous FaceTime sessions over vats of coffee, we are ALL. IN.

So we thought: why not hack Fathers’ Day? ??‍♀️

We’ve both got partners of the male persuasion who will be humbly hoping for some sort of celebration this weekend. Probably of the BBQ variety.

Who doesn’t like partying on a Sunday? Until Monday rolls around and nothing is prepared for the week. But there’s no changing Father’s Day, so we thought maybe we could just change our planning to include Fathers’ Day AND food for when Monday rolls around.

Magic.

We present to you: 4 AWESOME recipes to make a slamming, special BBQ lunch or dinner. Simply make a double batch of each (in virtually no extra time) and have delicious grain bowls ready for a week of lunches too.
