Recipe #1: Almond Chicken Dijon

This is yummy, easy, pretty quick, and nutritious!

4 chicken breast halves (about 1lb)
2 tbsp light mayo
2 tbsp dijon mustard (I like Grey Poupon Country Dijon)
1/4 cup slivered almonds

Place chicken breasts in a lightly greased glass baking dish (I use about 1/2 a tbsp of olive oil)
Mix mustard and mayo together in a separate bowl.
Spread mixture evenly over chicken - try to cover all surfaces
Sprinkle slivered almonds on top.
Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (needs longer if chicken isn't completely defrosted or is really thick).

I first came across this recipe when my Aunt Suzanne had leftovers of it in her fridge. She found it in a Kraft Foods flier. It can also be found at Kraftrecipes.com

I love it! Serve it with some brown rice and a veggie and it's a great meal. (It also reheats well- so leftovers are great!)

Just for fun

Hi Everyone-

A lot of my friends have family recipe blogs to share their favorite meals, desserts, snacks, etc. It can get boring making the same old thing, and it's always nice to get and exchange new recipes, so I thought I'd create a blog for more recipe sharing. If you have something to add, just email me or send it in a message on Facebook, and I'll add it (giving you credit, of course!). If anyone I know would like to be a regular contributor, let me know and I'll add you as an administrator!

Enjoy and Bon Apetit!

Kira
