Project 365: Day 156 – Cilantro Lime Chicken

image

I like making good dinners for my family, especially when I’ve been off for the day, but for days that I work, I’m working out shortcuts.

The chicken was pre-baked in the deli at Kroger. I went in the evening, so it was half price. That made it cheaper than the uncooked version in the meat section.

I cut up carrots and tossed in fingerling potatoes, followed by quartered onions.

I cut a lime in half and drizzled the juice over the chicken and vegetables. I stuffed the rind in the chicken. The other half was cut into 4 wedges and scattered with the vegetables.

I trimmed the cilantro and sprinkled it over the chicken and vegetables. I put a bunch of cilantro and 2 chunks of onion in the chicken with the lime rind.

Bake about 30 minutes at 350*F.

Project 365: Day 154 – Organizing the Pantry

I spent most of today getting the kitchen and laundry room/pantry/utility room cleaned up. The first order of business was tackling the juice boxes and snacks. Making them easily accessible for kids and out of the way.

Mission accomplished.

Making life of progress on our belated spring cleaning and mega decluttering!

Angry Birds Pizza

I found this Angry Birds pizza picture on Pinterest. With Lily being a big Angry Birds fan, it seems like something we should try.

Ingredients
Pillsbury refrigerated pizza dough
pizza sauce
shredded mozzarella cheese
cheddar cheese wedges
pepperoni slices
mushroom caps
sliced black olives

I just used the picture as my guide to assemble our pizza. Ours was the size of a small pizza. There were no leftovers.

I’m sure that there will be more requests for this in the near future.
