Garlic Chicken for Beginning Cooks

I love cooking. I’m constantly calling my mom for new recipes or perusing Pinterest for different dinner ideas. Sometimes, I’m even known to put my own twist on things, and after a bit of experimenting, this Garlic Chicken for Beginning Cooks quickly became one of my all-time favorites. It’s hands down one of the best recipes I’ve whipped up so far!

My favorite thing is that it’s simple, so if your skills in the kitchen are questionable, don’t worry! This recipe is easy and foolproof, not to mention, absolutely scrumptious!

Plus, if you know me at all, you know that I love ketchup…or really condiments of any kind. I use a lot of ketchup, and I put at least one kind of sauce on almost everything I eat. However, this is the first recipe I’ve found that’s perfect on its own. No extra seasoning or sauce required.

Danielle’s Chicken Cacciatore

We’re so proud of each and every one of our Mommy Makeover participants!

Danielle exemplified all three of these qualities throughout the contest, and her journey has inspired us all. So today, we’re very excited to have one of her family’s favorite recipes on the blog.

Please give Danielle a big Model Behaviors welcome!

Kale Chicken Caesar Salad

I’m always in the mood for a Caesar salad, but I find that kale is so much heartier than romaine and makes for a better fall/winter salad because salad isn’t just for the summertime. This is by far one of the easiest salad recipes and this homemade dressing is sure to make everyone think that you slaved over it for hours.

At your next potluck, volunteer to bring the Kale Chicken Caesar Salad! Read More “Kale Chicken Caesar Salad” >

Gluten-Free Buffalo Chicken Tenders

What’s football season without football snacks? Those yummy finger foods—like Buffalo Chicken Tenders, for instance—are a must for at-home tailgating. With the right seasoning, they can turn even the most disappointing games into a win.

And I don’t mind if I do help myself to guilt-free seconds and thirds because all of that cheering is sure to burn off those calories. Besides football without Buffalo Chicken Tenders is like Halloween without Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

But I for one know that having loved ones with food allergies can put a damper on things, especially, when it involves gluten. Fortunately for buffalo chicken tender lovers, it doesn’t have to be that way. This game day, go gluten-free and be a hit at your team’s tailgate.
