Try It Out Thursday is dedicated to recipes, products or ideas that I find on Pinterest or receive in my e-mail. I tend to “pin” and save a lot of recipes and craft ideas and never try them so I decided that this will help me wade through the many pins and e-mails that I have.

Food prep for the week has become VERY important in our household. If I don’t prep food for our lunches throughout the week, our checkbook really pays for it and so does our health because we are eating out all the time.

I found this recipe on pinterest for Baked Chicken with Spinach & Artichokes from Katerina at Diethood and thought it would make for some great lunches.

It did take some time to prepare. The recipes calls for you to par-cook the chicken so it gets some nice color and it also calls for you to saute the veggies before you even put it all in the oven. 

I did do one thing different and that was that I added zucchini. I love zucchini and there were a couple shouting at me from the refrigerator begging to be used. I added two small ones.

 

Regardless, it is a delicious recipe and it will be added to repertoire of food to choose from.

I paired it with a salad or some brown rice & quinoa. It really worked out during the week and it was so filling!

This recipe is definitely worth making ahead of time and it reheats well too.
