Greek Chicken


 I asked my friend Rebecca if she could have any food over the weekend what would it be.  She mentioned Greek.  I made a Home Chef recipe on my own.  Chicken with a spinach feta dip, puff pastry, and squash on the side.


Chicken breasts, which I cut in half to make them less thick

Softened cream cheese

Crumbled feta

Chopped spinach, sauteed in olive oil with minced garlic and diced red onion

Salt and pepper

Diced squash

Chimichurri seasoning

Puff pastry cut into squares and scored, not all the way through!


Heat oven to 450

Spray a foiled lined sheet pan with cooking spray

Brown chicken evenly on both sides for about 3 minutes.  It will finish cooking in the oven.

Add sauteed spinach, garlic, and red onion to a bowl with the softened cream cheese, feta, salt and pepper.  Stir to combine.

Place chicken on the sheet pan and top with the spinach mixture.

Place the scored puff pastry squares on the sheet pan.

Back together in the oven about 12 minutes.  The puff should be golden brown.

Sautee the diced squash with some olive oil, salt, pepper.  Stir in the chimichurri seasoning at the end.  

Serve as shown!


I put the leftovers over some rice for lunch and it was delicious.

Crockpot Salsa Chicken

This was easy, done in less than 4 hours, and it tasted good Slow-Cooker Salsa Chicken Ingredients 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1 cup salsa (I used a whole jar of Pace Pico de Gallo) 1/2 package taco seasoning 1 can cream of chicken soup (condensed) 1/2 cup reduced fat sour cream 1 can black beans, rinsed A few handfuls of frozen corn Directions Add chicken to slow cooker. Sprinkle taco seasoning over chicken. Pour salsa and soup over chicken. Add black beans and corn I stir it all together Cook on high for about 3.5 hours and cut chicken to check for doneness. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream. The first night we ate this mix with these corn tamales we buy, that have no filling. They are just cornbread. We threw some shredded Mexican cheese on top of the salsa chicken mix The second night DH ate the mix, with cheese again, on tortillas I put tortilla chips in a bowl and poured the mixture on top, added cheese. It was like a Mexican chicken chili :) I will be making th...

Mini Naan Pizzas

I made my favorite pizzas.  Arugula with pesto and balsamic and pepperoni with hot honey.  Quick and easy Friday night.  I wish I had prosciutto for the arugula one, but it was still great.
