My husband, Dennis, works out every morning and eats healthy. He’s been a runner most of his life and has added the Sealfit (developed a former Navy Seal commander) workout to his morning routine. Dennis has been committed to this workout for the last several months and it shows. During the holiday season, on one…

National Chili Day Calls for Chicken Chili
Today, February 22rd, is National Chili Day. It is always the fourth Thursday in February. Chilly is exactly what it’s been in San Diego this week, which gave me two good reasons to make chili for dinner tonight. I decided to make a chicken chili. I bought a rotisserie chicken from my local grocery store…
Fennel, Date and Lemon Spatchcock Chicken
I did it! I spatchcocked a chicken. I’ve cooked a spatchcock chicken once before, but today was the first time I actually took a whole chicken and spatchcocked it myself. It wasn’t hard at all. You just need a sharp pair of kitchen shears. Mine are by the Pioneer Woman. I have a couple of…
Marinated Artichoke Heart, Sun-dried Tomato and Boursin Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breasts
Because it’s Sunday, I wanted to make a nice dinner for my family. I like to make things for dinner that look and taste impressive, that I would be proud to serve at a dinner party … but are also easy enough to make any night of the week without too much work. I believe…
Olive Tapenade Chicken Breast
My dinner idea tonight came from an urge to clean out the pantry of things leftover that I bought to use for entertaining and hadn’t. A couple of those things were jars of olive tapenade to use as a topping for crostini and jars of antipasto I wanted to have on hand to place on…
Moroccan Chicken Stew
Truth be told, this is the first time I’ve ever eaten Moroccan Stew … which would also make this the first time I’ve ever made Moroccan Stew. I don’t know why, but a couple days ago, I decided I wanted to try it so therefore I’d make it. I did a bit of research to…
Nut Crumb Chicken
A dear friend of mine had given me a package of Nut Crumbs as a hostess gift a couple weeks ago. I’ve been looking forward to trying these, so made chicken using them last night. They were so good! The package says they are a bread crumb alternative … the ingredients are pistachios, almonds, almond…
Honey Ginger Chicken Thighs
Over the weekend, I was asking Dennis what he’d like for dinner this week. One of his requests was to have chicken thighs with an Asian flavor. While at Trader Joe’s doing my weekly grocery shopping, I bought a package of fresh ginger and figured out what I’d do with it once I got home….
Sweet Italian Chicken Sausage and Vegetable Sheet Pan Dinner
The colors in tonight’s dinner are so vibrant! This meal just yelled out “healthy” to me. I had Sweet Italian chicken sausages in the freezer that I wanted to make this week, but didn’t want them in a bun or as part of a pasta dish. I’ve seen so many one pan dinners that I…
Sicilian Seasoned and Prosciutto Wrapped, Breaded Chicken Breasts
This may just be my favorite chicken recipe that I’ve come up with! I actually came up with this recipe while chatting with my sister on the phone. We were chatting and laughing, having a great time. I love the phone calls with my sister! It seems they mostly happen on a Sunday late afternoon,…
