A couple months ago, I started getting a fun new magazine called Kiwi. The tagline for the magazine is “Real-life advice for living green, eating healthy, and raising happy, caring kids.” That sounded good to me…. so when it popped up on Slickdeals.net, I had to have it. The magazine was jammed packed with awesome recipes…. this being one of them.
This VERY easy to make, and the whole family loved it for dinner, and asked for it for lunch the next day! Thank goodness I had enough leftovers Thai Garlic & Basil Chickento feed the girls. Usually when I asked them what they want for lunch, I hear “hot dogs, sandwich, cereal!” I was so super pleased to hear Little D say “lets have chicken like we did last night… that was yummy!”
I didn’t want to leave Darryl (my vegetarian hubby) out, so I made a separate batch with his fake chicken. Both versions prepared and cooked super easy and fast. I really recommend this dish to anyone! XO – Corey
