Saturday Vittles

 

My daughter and I are trying to eat healthier, so I am sharing some of the dishes that we are eating each week. 

Baked Chicken, Asparagus and Salad

This was a very simple dinner, but it was still good. 

I baked the chicken and asparagus for about an hour in a covered baking pan at 400F
Add whatever seasoning you like. I also added 1/4 cup of chicken broth so it wouldn't burn. I added some hot sauce to my chicken after it was cooked.

Then we just made a simple salad, and I found a Fat Free Ranch dressing that is only 35 Calories for 2 TBSP. My salad has lettuce, radishes, cucumbers and mushrooms. You can add whatever you like to yours. 

This meal was 300 Calories and 10 grams of carbs. 

Do you like asparagus?

  4. I used to eat a lot of asparagus when my partner at the time loved it. I was just thinking the other day that it's been quite awhile since I've prepared any. Maybe when it's in season again and widely available in our stores, I'll get a bunch and steam them.

  7. Looks good. Asparagus makes my pee smell, I have that gene so I avoid it. My family likes it though. They don't mind any smell.

    I watched an Instagram video showing a pet rat building a nest in her cage. I thought of you. I don't know that I could find it again, but I thought of you!

  16. That all looks delicious and asparagus is one of the few veggies that I *do* like. Asparagus, brussel sprouts, broccoli crowns cooked super soft are my top 3.
