One-skillet meals and sheet pan dinners are always a hit, and this Plant-Based “Beef” & Potato Skillet is creeping up to the top of my list of personal favorites. It’s ideal for meal prepping ahead of a busy week or pulling together as a go-to for Meatless Monday or any night during a Plant-Based Whole30.
