Рецепт Clean Eating Black Bean Mexican Chicken
Chicken can get boring really fast. So I’m constantly trying to create new ways to prepare it. We are definitely a chicken household around here, so boredom is just not an option in that department. Thankfully, I occasionally still come up with a winner.
Mini Chef is getting wise to my “healthy food antics” these days. He’s getting close to 7 years old and he notices when I sneak things into his food now. He’s getting pickier, even though he has a pretty good palate for a 6 year old, and I’m not sure I like that very much. But at the end of the day, he’ll usually eat what I put in front of him, so I guess I can’t complain. Thankfully, I got a really favorable reaction to this dish. No arguments about dinner that night! Whoo hoo! Mom scores again!
