Has it been one of those weeks? So much to do, so much pressure… and so little time for cooking that your mind’s drifting to drive-thru fast food for solutions?
This is one of those moments where I’ll suggest that you slow down for a sec and take those 7 intentional breaths I talked about in my previous blog post.
Feeling better? Alright!
This Chicken Teriyaki recipe provided by my friend Jenna is one of THE tastiest, quick-but-way-healthier-and-more-enjoyable-than-fast-food meals I’ve ever had. No need to grumble if there’s snow on the BBQ, either, as this one’s done in a Microwave Pressure Cooker!
If I were doing Hallowe’en activities with the little ‘uns (my little ‘uns are now big ‘uns, but my youngest ‘un, Chloe, was born on October 31st – so I know what it’s like to be super busy on Hallowe’en!), I’d start by making this easy 15-minute meal for dinner… It’s a simple trick that’s a treat to eat!
Grown-ups should enjoy themselves on Hallowe’en, too – wouldn’t you agree?
