Recent Recipes

Posted on May 12th, 2016

We are so close to the start of my three-month fresh produce spree, but before I make watermelon and cherry tomatoes my primary food groups, I wanted to share a round up of some of the real recipes I’ve made recently.

Skinny Chicken Tikka– We got the real Indian restaurant experience by having a ratio that was way too much sauce and way not enough chicken, but I froze the extra sauce and it was delicious when I thawed it and made more chicken.  Definitely recommend!

Sweet Potato Egg Breakfast Boats– Disclosure: I messed this one up and overcooked the eggs.  But I can tell it would be delicious with proper execution 😉

Pickle Brined Chicken Tenders– Apparently pickle juice is the secret to Chick-fil-a chicken, and this did not let me down.  But the baked preparation makes this weeknight appropriate.  The marinade takes approximately 20 seconds to put together before you head to work in the morning, and then you’re set for a delicious dinner.  Leftovers were delicious on my salad the next day!

Roasted Broccoli and Quinoa Salad with Honey Mustard Dressing– I beefed this up to serve as a main course with a little feta and chopped pecans and it’s AMAZING.  I can’t wait to make this one again.  Best recipe on the list!  And it’s essentially made entirely of superfoods.

Frittata– The new quiche.  And will be an excellent vehicle for my amazing summer produce binges.

And last, and definitely also least…

Light Chicken Enchilada Pie– Weird.  Nope.  But still froze the leftovers and will force Ian to eat it for dinner in a few weeks.  He’s so lucky to have me.
