Incredibly Easy One-Pot Meals

One-pot recipes mean less time preparing, less time over the stove and less time cleaning up. What parent wouldn't be grateful for a break from the time it usually takes to prepare the evening meal?

And these meals are easy too. The only tools you need are a cutting board, a knife and a large stock pot.
