This recipe looks like a ton of ingredients, but as you can see from my pictures I've swapped out some ingredients for others that you have on hand. It actually only took about 40mins to prepare, which isn't bad for being a few different elements. It's a pretty healthy recipe, and even better doesn't taste that way.
