Caramelized Baked Chicken with Green Olives and Prunes

Easy Caramelized Baked Chicken with Green Olives and Prunes is a delicious healthy meal that gets its amazing flavor from marinating the chicken. I make a lot of chicken during the week for my kids.

Easy Hot Black Bean Salsa Dip Recipe

September 6, 2011 by Jeanette 47 Comments

Hot Black Bean Salsa Dip

With football season starting up, I will be making “football snacks” every weekend, a tradition in our house since my boys were young. Although football snacks are notoriously greasy and unhealthy, I’ve been trying to “healthify” our weekend snack fare the past several seasons while keeping them tasty and satisfying. Last football season, I came…

The Beginner Green Smoothie

Beginner Green Smoothie Shots

This Beginner Green Smoothie is a great introduction to adding greens to your morning smoothie. I have to admit that the idea of drinking something green really doesn’t appeal to me.  So, when I was given a green smoothie to try for breakfast recently, I was hesitant to say the least.  Visually, I wasn’t sure…

Mango Pineapple Coconut Water Smoothie Recipe

August 16, 2010 by Jeanette Leave a Comment
