Creamy Dessert!

Ok, so my new favourite treat I make is so easy and so delish! Mix together: 1/2 cup to 1 cup vanilla greek yogurt, add 1 tbsp organic, natural peanut butter (only organic peanuts as ingredients), sprinkle of cinnamon and a drizzle of honey (opt). You can also add in some organic nuts and/or raisins if you like. Yummy and healthy!

Bonus: If your PB is nearing the end of the jar and getting dried out and is in little pieces you can definitely still use it. It's great to use it because then it has little chunks of peanut butter in with the yogurt and other ingredients. Kind of tastes like a blizzard but WAY healthier!! ENJOY!

Hot & Sweet Chicken With Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes



As we all know chicken is one of the most versatile, lean proteins that we can eat.  I love the multitude of dishes you can make with it and the endless flavor combinations.  I was actually craving hot and honey wings, so I decided to switch that up to make it work with chicken breasts.  This is a very easy, delicious meal that will definitely satisfy your wing craving and it is healthier than deep fried wings at your local pub or restaurant, a win- win for everyone.  My taste buds love how the hot and sweet flavors dance around my tongue--an absolutely amazing dish!  

I made Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes to go along with the chicken.  This is a great way to use any leftover roasted garlic from my Simple Roasted Garlic recipe.  It's convenient to make more and have it on hand in the fridge for a dish like this.  If you don't have any prepared it's very easy and can be roasted along with the dinner.  Please see the note at the bottom of this recipe for the details on the timing.
