Chicken Brushetta For Dinner
If you haven't figured it out yet, we love to eat! Food is the center of our family. For me food means love. And the food I feed my family needs to be semi-healthy, baby steps, good and simple to make. 
One of the main focuses happening in our house during this "pandemic" is cooking. I want my kids to know there way around the kitchen. And not just knowing how to make sweets. But how to make real food. Don't get me wrong, we bake plenty of sweets. But you can not live on sweets alone. 
We stumbled across a recipe about Chicken Brushetta and they wanted to try making it so we did. Here are the steps and tweaks we did. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.  
Chicken Brushetta
Here's What you Need

For the chicken:

  • 4 chicken breasts, about 6 ounces each
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Parsley Flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 drop Oregano Vitality Oil
  • 1 Drop Thyme Vitality Oil
  • 1 Drop Basil Vitality Oil 
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella

For the bruschetta:

  • 1 ½ cups cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 3 teaspoons Garlic Powder Or Minced Garlic 
  • ½ small red onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon White Wine Vinegar OR balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • ½ cup chopped Spinach
  • 1 Drop Basil Vitality Oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Now for the magic:

  1. Add the chicken breasts to a baking dish.
  2. Add the oil, vinegar, garlic, Parsley seasoning, all Vitality Oils, and salt to a small bowl and whisk to combine. Pour over the chicken and turn to coat.
  3. Let the chicken marinate for 10 minutes while the oven heats to 425 degrees.
  4. Place chicken in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until chicken reaches 165 degrees. 
  5. While the chicken is baking, add all of the ingredients for the bruschetta to a bowl and toss to combine.
  6. When chicken is done, remove from the oven and top with the mozzarella.
  7. Pour the bruschetta over the chicken and return to the oven for 5 minutes to melt the cheese and warm the tomatoes.
These are the best tomatoes we have ever made at home. Literally, we were all fighting over who got the last few tomatoes in the pan.

I help women overcome their negative mindset and start remembering their light is worth shining! 

Welcome! I'm so glad you found your way here.

 
Hey there! 👋

I'm Michelle — the voice (and occasional chef hat wearer) behind this little corner of the internet where family, fun, and food intersect... just not always in that order. 😄

If you've ever wondered how to slow down long enough to actually taste life (and not just the leftovers on your kid's plate), you're in the right place.

Here's the deal: I'm a busy mom with a heart full of curiosity and a kitchen full of half-used spices. Some days we're chasing sunsets, exploring small towns, and hopping on steam trains. Other days we're elbow-deep in pierogies, trying a new recipe, or laughing over whatever adventure the day throws our way.

I believe the best memories aren't always the expensive vacations or picture-perfect moments. More often than not, they're found around the dinner table, on a spontaneous road trip, or during an afternoon that wasn't planned at all.

Why This Blog Exists 
I didn't start this blog to make you jump through hoops.

I started it because I was tired of everyone else doing it.

You know the drill. You find a recipe you're excited to make... and before you can even see the ingredients, you've dodged six pop-ups, watched three ads, and learned someone's entire life story.

Or you're told to "Comment COOKIE 🍪 for the recipe!" so a robot can send it to your inbox—and suddenly you're getting emails every day about things you never asked for.

No thanks.

Around here, I respect your time. If you click on a recipe, you'll get the recipe. If I recommend a place to visit, I'll tell you why it's worth the trip. No endless scrolling. No keyword games. No nonsense.

Life is busy enough.

I'm not here to waste your time—I'm here to help you enjoy it.

So if you're looking for recipes without the endless scrolling or pop-ups, family adventures that won't break the bank, honest recommendations, or just a reminder to slow down and enjoy the little things, you've found your people.

Grab a cup of coffee, stay awhile, and make yourself at home.

I'm so glad you're here. ❤️
