Pizza Stuffed Chicken

Pizza Stuffed Chicken

All of the delicious flavors of pizza, without all of the bread. This makes a fun alternative to traditional pizza, even for the one child who doesn’t let me fill hers with sausage, pepperoni, or mozzarella cheese. But then- she also doesn’t eat pizza, so at least she likes a basic version of this meal.

To make these chicken rolls, it is important to pound the chicken breast thin between layers of plastic wrap. If you are starting with a large breast, you can either cut it completely in half into two thinner pieces before pounding, or you can butterfly the breast first before pounding.

I like to fill them with pepperoni, cooked sausage, and just a little bit of sauce and cheese. Here are a few process pictures (ignore the skinny little roll on the end without any of the delicious meat inside).

Chicken Tikka Masala

Chicken Tikka Masala

After a week spent outside in the beautiful sunshine and warm weather (in mid-February!), the temperature has taken a nose dive this weekend. That makes this a perfect time to make a hearty curry for (maybe?) this last venture into winter.

Chicken Tikka Masala is a spice-filled, tomato-based Indian curry full of delicious tender chicken.

I use a Tandoori spice blend from Spiceology to marinate the chicken before roasting it and adding it to the curry base. You could also use a prepared tandoori paste, or a mixture of garam masala, turmeric, coriander, and Kashmiri chili powder.

Serve over rice with naan bread, if desired. Recipe for homemade Naan Bread:

DAY 12: Sugar-Free Orange Shortbread

These are my favorite sugar-free cookie. The shortbread cookie is soft and delicate, and not overly sweet. Drizzling the orange cookies with sugar-free dark chocolate combines two of my favorite flavors.

DAY 9: Root Beer Float Fudge

I found this recipe on Shugary Sweets and thought it would be fun to try. If you are looking to make something a little bit different this year, this is it! Root beer flavored fudge swirled with a white chocolate marshmallow layer. You might want to warn people before they eat it; it may look like chocolate, but it definitely doesn’t taste like it!
