  • Balsamic Chicken Tenders

    Chicken tenders are one of my most favorite proteins to cook.  They are quick, easy and you can do just about anything with them, making them a perfect weeknight dinner option. Amping them up a bit I am a fan of a simple grilled chicken tender, or breast or thigh, but when you can marinade and glaze with something a little special I am an even bigger fan.  The added flavor from the balsamic reduction adds just enough of that something extra to make these chicken tenders something to remember. They balsamic vinegar brings a bit of tang while the brown sugar gives a bit fo sweet in each bite.…

  • A whole new way to Fajita

    I could literally have a fajita, of some sort, for every singe meal.  Yes for breakfast, lunch and dinner and maybe even a snack.  As much as I love fajitas, sometimes I just don’t want to take the time to fix them…well that is until now. Peppers and Onion…OH YEAH! One of my favorite parts of any fajitas are the peppers and onions.  I just love the little charred bits and the hint of sweetness and a little spice in each bite.   Even better they add a ton of flavor to the meat, in this case chicken, which makes them a must have in all my fajita dishes. Careful…

  • Naked Buffalo Tenders (Keto/Low Carb)

    I don’t know about you but the Super Bowl is a big deal in my family.  We usually have some sort of get together with friends and family.  When it is party time that means is time for food and lot of it!! It’s not just about the Game Now for the women we primarily watch the game for the commercials and for the half time show, but I know the guys watch the game for the actual game.   I mean who can forget the Janet Jackson show or the Beyonce show…the list goes on and on.  Of course there are also some great football memories as well, but…

  • quick, skinny and oh so good fajitas

    I have a confession (one I have made several times before, but it probably needs to be made again) I LOVE MEXICAN FOOD!  I am not overly picky…I love tacos, burritos, enchiladas but I especially love fajitas! I love that you get all the yummies that Mexican food has to offer but without a lot of the calories and fat of some other options (such as tacos, burritos or enchiladas).   You can have fajitas made with beef, shrimp, chicken or just veggies…all of which are good but when I decided to do a quick one pan fajita skillet at home I knew I wanted to use chicken as it…
