Dinner Tonight: Honey & Spice Baked Chicken w/ Whole Grain Brown Rice, Asparagus Bits, and Whole Grain Bread
Tried a new recipe tonight for dinner. I ran across it in latest issue of Simple & Delicious / Taste of Home. It's coated with a lot of my favorite Spices Garlic Powder, Chili Powder, Smoked Cumin, Cayenne Pepper among other ingredients. Coat your Chicken Breasts, bake, and baste and you have some mouth watering Chicken! It came out flavorful and moist. Tasty and easy Chicken dish, I will have this again. I left the recipe at the bottom of the post, give it a try. For sides I had Uncle Ben's Whole Grain Brown Rice, Green Giant Asparagus Bits, and Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread. For dessert later a slice of Pillsbury Nut Quick Bread with a scoop of Breyer's Carb Smart Vanilla Ice Cream. I made several loaves of the Nut Quick Bread in mini foil pans and froze them. They come in handy for a quick dessert or snack.
