For a grown-up chicken tender meal, I decided to bread my tenders in crushed fig and olive crackers mixed with grated parmesan cheese. I love these crackers and I buy them at Trader Joe’s. When I was there last, I picked up a box intending to include them in a dinner recipe. This is what I…

Honey Lavender Chicken Breast Sandwich
Yesterday morning I took my German Shepard, Remington, on a 4 mile walk. When I take him with me, I have a different route than I normally take. I love spending the time with him on our walk, he’s such a good boy and it’s our special time together. While we walk, I always take notice…
Greek Chicken Baked in Foil Packets
I live for my morning walk, heading out with my music blasting. I’m one with nature and I enjoy my time alone each morning where I can just think about what I need to complete for the day, for the week, or even the month ahead. I think up most of my recipes that I…

Honey Thyme Chicken Drumsticks

I put two packages of chicken drumsticks in a glass bowl and poured the marinade over the drumsticks and let it sit…
