So far... so good....

This week has been pretty good if I say so myself.  So far, I have created some "original" meals, some good- some iffy.... but edible mind you.  It's a start!  I thought that maybe I'd share a quick and easy recipe that you can make a bunch of different ways...

This is what I am calling, HARD DAY CHICKEN:

Here's what you need:

• 1 lb. lean ground chicken
• 1 tsp. black pepper
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 1 tsp. sea salt
• 1 bag frozen mixed veggies- I use the Safeway brand bell pepper mix- green, red and yellow peppers
• 1 tsp. minced garlic

Here's what you do:

• Heat olive oil in large skillet on medium high heat
• Add minced garlic and allow to heat through (approx. 2 min.)
• Add frozen bag of mixed peppers, cook for a few minutes stirring occasionally
• Add ground chicken and break apart mixing peppers throughout
• Continue stiring, it will be watery as peppers defrost- it's okay, it will be just fine....
• Continue cooking for several minutes, move around every once in a while so it doesn't stick
• Add pepper
• Add sea salt
• Mix together and allow to cook for several more mintues water will evaporate- cook for a few minutes more until it dries out a little bit more or until chicken is cooked through

I have made this chicken several times this week, it's a hit!  My boyfriend eats it just like this, I like to try to jazz it up a bit so I have tried a few things now...

• Pita with feta, ceasar dressing, olives... yum
• Tacoless tacos, with sourcream, olives, salsa, cheese... yum x2

Give it a try, see if my HARD DAY CHICKEN doesn't help make your night a little easier...

Till next time, me
