Broccoflower with Garlic, Balsamic, Basil & Parmesan

Broccoflower with Garlic, Balsamic, Basil & Parmesan

This Broccoflower with Garlic, Balsamic, Basil & Parmesan is a vibrantly colored side dish. Broccoflower is a cross between broccoli and cauliflower, two vegetables that are actually so closely related that they can be easily cross-pollinated. One type of broccoflower looks just like white cauliflower, but is lime-green in color.

Buttermilk Chicken

This is the most moist, tender chicken I have ever made. Buttermilk Chicken is a must to add to your repertoire. I have a half a carton of buttermilk in the refrigerator, so when life gives you buttermilk make this chicken! This is the most moist, tender chicken I have ever made. I did marinate it for a full 24 hours, due to the fact that I was too tired to cook the night before! I also cut the breasts in half before marinating.

It's like a burger in a taco shell!

Chicken Zorba

Chicken Zorba

This Chicken Zorba recipe is my nephew’s favorite dinner. It’s a recipe from a Sainsbury’s card from the early ’90s. I have to say, I understand why it’s his favorite dinner. The chicken is so tender (due to marinating it overnight) and flavorful. Also, the hummus and Greek yogurt mixture is heaven!
