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!

This is my one and only bow like this. I didn’t make it, but bought it to see how it’s made.

I can make them, but with the amount of ribbon and the time these take, I can’t really justify adding them to the bows I already make.

I still think they’re pretty neat, and I love the colors.
