Chicken and Dumplings
Who doesn’t like chicken noodle soup!?!? Well, since I am on a soup kick, why not continue? This is my version of chicken and dumplings. When I was little we would roll out the dough and cut each noodle by hand. Such great memories and such a great soup. I have made a few tweaks…
Almond Crusted Chicken breast

Chicken Meatballs
Chicken meatballs are easy to make and very versatile. I am blown away that nearly everyone I have talked to about them have never heard or imagined making meatballs with chicken! Once made, they can be used in almost any meal. I make a large batch and store them in the freezer for later use….
Stuffed Chicken Breast
I am sure you have heard it before, but chicken breast is a great source of lean protein. It is however a very tricky meat to cook because it is easy to overcook, and undercooking can make you very sick. It doesn’t matter what you do to season it, a dry chicken breast is hard…
