Man-Pleasing Chicken | Witty in the City I have never gotten so many compliments before, let alone for a piece of chicken. David suggested calling this chicken, “So Good it Can’t Be Described, Explosion on Your Taste Buds Chicken.” Exactly. I have never encountered a dish that is so basic and simple to put together yet creates such a big pay off. To make this chicken, which you should absolutely do immediately, preheat your oven to 450º F. Put 1.5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs into a foil-lined or disposable oven-proof, 8×8 inch baking dish. Put the chicken thighs into the oven, and let them bake for 40 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 165ºF. I adapted this recipe from “The I <3 Trader Joe’s Cookbook” by Cherie Mercer Twohy. Shopping list: Chicken thighs- 1 packageDijon mustard- 1/2 cupMaple syrup- 1/4 cupRice/rice wine vinegar- 1 tablespoonFresh rosemarySalt and pepper

Fifteen Minute Salsa Verde Eggs Recipe The idea of eggs cooked in some kind of spicy sauce is what has inspired famous dishes like Shakshuka and Huevos Rancheros. I could have been thinking something like that when this simple breakfast idea popped into my mind, but truthfully I think the recipe was most inspired by a jar of salsa verde that I stumbled across in the pantry. These days I'm alternating between trying not to think about my pantry (full of various heavy cans and bottles that will need to be moved to the new house) and gazing into the shelves trying to imagine what I can use up before moving day. This was one of those "What can I make with ingredients I already have?" kind of experiments, and wow, did I love this easy breakfast. There are two reasons for putting the eggs into little dishes before you start heating the sauce. I made a single serving in an 8 inch frying pan; just double the recipe to make Salsa Verde Eggs for Two in a larger pan. Then gently nestle the eggs on top of the spicy sauce. Instructions:

Dukan Pizza | The Dukan Diet Way All I can say is oh my God! This pizza was amazing! If you like thin crust pizza, then this is for you! I was so excited that I had to post this right away. The recipe is easy to follow I’m thinking that you could also make the pizza base and use it as a pita bread for something a little different…. Since it can get boring unless you use your imagination. Here’s how it all came together! 1 teaspoon – Baking powder 1 teaspoon (grated) – Cheese Basil chopped Smoked salmon 1 tablespoon – Corn flour 2 Egg 2 tablespoons – Oat bran 1tablespoon – plain yogurt Small amount of pesto sauce for base Put the eggs, yogurt, oat bran, cornflour, baking powder and spices into a bowl for mixing. Mix all the ingredients in the bowl and pour it out onto the pan. When the bottom is done, and the top still a bit liquid on top, put a bit of pesto on top with tomatoes cut into pieces, sprinkle with grated cheese. It will be amazing and taste like thin crust pizza! Like this: Like Loading...
Pumpkin French Toast Bake Pumpkin french toast = breakfast of champions. Take my word. Remember my 7-ingredient muesli bread? Well, it’s making another appearance in this pumpkin french toast. I’ve always made french toast the traditional route: dip bread into egg batter and fry right when you’re ready to eat. The ‘batter’ consisted of several free range eggs, a healthy dash of milk, a scoop of pumpkin butter and plenty of pumpkin pie spice. You guys, it’s possible that I’ve never been so excited to hop up out of bed on a Saturday to preheat my oven. As you can see, it turned out phenomenal. Topped with a little maple syrup (agave or honey) and it’s phenomenal. If there’s just two of you dining on this breakfast, simply cut the recipe in half or even one-fourth for a more appropriate serving size. Pumpkin French Toast Bake Prep time Total time Sweet and spicy pumpkin french toast is made the night before for an easy, early-morning preparation.

Want Glowing Skin In 3 Weeks? Start With Your Digestion If you're working toward more radiant and glowing skin, you might be surprised to know that the answer lies more in your digestive tract rather than on how much you're spending on creams and cleansers. If we look a bit closer at how our digestive system works, it begins to make a lot of sense. Among other functions, our digestive system is the main place where we absorb beauty nutrients from our foods, as well as the main place where we dispel toxins through elimination. When the digestive system struggles to eliminate toxins effectively, it will partner up with other organs and eliminate toxins that way. What Causes Poor Digestion? Suboptimal digestion is quite common today, and is caused by numerous factors including: Eating a diet high in processed foods, refined carbohydrates and sugarEating too many dairy productsEating foods to which you have sensitivities (gluten and eggs, for example)Consuming too much alcoholLiving a high-stress lifestyleNot getting enough exercise 1. 2. 3. 4.

48 Foods To Balance Your Hormones & Give You Glowing Skin Who doesn't want a rocking reproductive system, balanced hormones, and glowing skin? I know I do, and eating certain nutrient dense foods will put anyone on this path. Whether we like it or not, hormones control our mood, digestion, energy, libido, metabolism, and how our skin looks. If we don't eat foods with the nutrients we need, our body cannot produce hormones correctly or maintain hormonal balance because it doesn't have the building blocks to do so. Whatever you're eating is either helping hormonal production, or causing unpredictable imbalances. The human body needs a balance of all three macronutrients, carbohydrates, protein, and especially fat. Fat is one of the most crucial elements for hormonal balance. Here's why: hormones are produced using certain fatty acids and cholesterol, so if we're missing these nutrients, hormone problems arise simply because the body doesn't have the nutrients it needs to make them. How to eat for hormonal balance 1. 2. 3. 4.

The Very Best Waffles I recently bought a waffle iron. You would not believe the waffle ideas that are constantly bouncing around in my brain. It’s sort of ridiculous. And, obviously, by “ridiculous,” I mean fabulous. You guys should totally come live in my brain with the delicious waffles. It’s a happy place up in there. Before I get all crazy on you with the strange-but-delicious waffle recipes, I thought it’d be best to start with the basics. This waffle recipe is the one. Light and crispy and tender, but not mushy or soggy. The secret, I believe, is the addition of corn starch (makes it crisper) and the whipped egg white (makes it lighter). If you don’t have any of those fancy things, just bust out the wire whisk and hand it to your husband. Other than that, these waffles are simple to prepare and they are worth every single muscle ache you may or may not end up with after all the whisking. Print Save Ingredients: Directions: Heat the oven to 200°F and heat up the waffle iron. lightly adapted from Fine Cooking
