    Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breasts #BornOnTheFarm

    May 8, 2017 /

    Healthy living is a constant process. We exercise and are a very active family. We strive to improve as often as possible. But, like everyone, we falter. It’s super simple to reach for takeout on a night when we are frazzled and running. Meal planning goes out the door when we are racing from activity to activity and working at night too. So, what is a busy family to do to help build healthy meal options weekly?   Well, here are a few thoughts. I hope they help.

    Fast Slow Pro from Breville Makes Dinner Easier than Ever

    April 20, 2017 /

    This post contains affiliate links as a service to readers. I receive a commission when a purchase is made via the links in this post. I also received product in exchange for consideration here.  The Fast Slow Pro is my favourite new kitchen toy. I have been eyeing up the Breville Canada Fast Slow Pro for awhile now. But I was waiting to decide if I could truly make use of this or not. Honestly the idea of pressure cooking intimidated me at first. This past month we added this to our weekly meal planning routine and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The Breville Fast Slow Pro is…

    Do You Take Your Chicken For Granted? #RaisedbyCDNFarmer

    October 11, 2015 /

    How many times a week do you eat chicken? I used to joke that I ate so much chicken I should cluck, but beyond the joke and the fact that I knew chicken was a good source of protein, I never really gave it that much consideration. In fact, I readily admit that I take my food for granted. I do the lion’s share of the grocery shopping in my house and chicken factors high on the meat side of the grocery list. It’s affordable and healthy. I trust that I can feed my family chicken several times a week. I have honestly never really given much thought to the story…

    Kid Approved Chicken Udon Noodles – Cooking With Kids

    April 20, 2015 /

    Chicken Udon Noodles to the rescue! As my children get older, time is even more precious and demands on time are somehow even greater than ever before. But eating meals together is still important. Sometimes as a family we battle finicky appetites and hormones. That can be challenging. Very honestly, I can tell you that my tween and teen were so much less picky when they were small. As toddlers they ate everything I gave them. I never ever heard: “What’s for dinner?” or “Can I just make myself a sandwich instead?”   So cooking can be more challenging than ever. It’s deflating when someone comes to dinner and turns…

    One of my Favourite Dishes: Chicken Piccata Recipe

    April 16, 2015 /

    One of my favourite dishes ever to order when we go out is this: chicken piccata. I love the flavour combinations of capers and lemon and wine with chicken served on a bed of noodles. Of course there is always just a tiny hint of olive oil in the mix to make this dish, and the chicken, super moist and succulent. I wish I had a dish of it handy right now actually. This, and chicken masala, are two chicken dishes I could exist on. No question, chicken is a staple in many family homes at dinner time. It is versatile and fairly inexpensive. Plus it really absorbs spices and…
