Do you gather with family for Easter? Now that we are back in Arizona, we do, and we always have a HUGE Easter dinner. We gather with the whole Luna clan and my mom and sisters get together for lunch weeks before to figure out the menu (similar to what they do for Thanksgiving).

This One-Pan Cheesy Chicken, Broccoli, and Rice dish is perfect for a busy weeknight when things are hectic. Only one dish to clean for this satisfying dinner.  Broccoli is one of the few vegetables my whole family loves so I knew it would be a hit and it was. If broccoli isn’t a vegetable your family loves you can use spinach or asparagus. This is the kind of recipe that sits in your back pocket when it’s 5 pm and you don’t know what you’re making for dinner. INGREDIENTS:  3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil  1/2 medium yellow onion , diced finely  1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts , cut into bite sized pieces  2 cloves of garlic , minced  1 teaspoon of kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste  1 cup uncooked extra long grain white rice  2 1/2 cups of low-sodium chicken broth (I like to use Better than Buillion Chicken base)  2 1/2 cups broccoli florets , cut into bite sized pieces  2 cups shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese INSTRUCTIONS: In a

Mediterranean Tuna Lettuce Wraps are a simple, healthy, no-cook dinner idea. Recipe features chickpeas, olives, feta cheese, tomatoes in a dijon lemon vinaigrette. The heat continues this summer here in the south and we don’t see any relief in sight… I do NOT want to be slaving over a hot stove to put dinner on the table. I decided that I needed to find healthy, no-cook recipes for my family. With crazy back-to-school schedules, wedding showers, bachelor and bachelorette parties and other upcoming wedding events, we will be crazy busy for the next few months!! It will be even more important to be able to provide simple and healthy dinners that are still no-cook. A no-cook recipe’s best friend is Bumble Bee® Albacore Tuna. It is an easy and delicious way to add a variety of nutrients to your diet including lean protein, healthy fat, and important vitamins and minerals. I love the convenience and health benefits of feeding Bumble Bee® products to my family! INGREDIENTS: 2 (5 o

Oven Baked Chicken Breasts

Gambar
Baked Chicken Breasts is couldn’t be more simple or delicious to make! Chicken breasts are tossed in a simple herb mixture then oven baked until they are tender and juicy! This easy baked chicken recipe makes chicken breasts that are lightly seasoning and great to top Chicken Salads, add to sandwiches, or stir into Easy Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie. While these are great to use in any recipe that requires cooked chicken breast, they’re so juicy and delicious, they’re great perfect served on their own too. This is one of those recipes that you’ll find yourself using again and again.  It produces an all purpose chicken breast that can be added to recipes, served in a sandwich or prepared ahead of time for meal prep. Of course we also love to serve it right of the pan as is with a side of  Baked Zucchini and a salad. Baked chicken breasts are naturally lean, packed full of protein, and easy to make. They are as simple as adding some herbs and oil, and throwing them in the oven! INGRE
