Foil-Pack Taco Chicken Dinner

Yes, I know it's been a while. Sorry guys, life's been a little hectic lately, but here is something I made the other night when I was crunched for time.

It's so easy, and keeps the chicken so moist because of it being baked in the foil, melts in your mouth!!

Foil-Pack Taco Chicken Dinner

Ingredients:
4 small boneless skinless chicken breasts (1lb)
4 t taco seasoning mix
1/2 lb red potatoes (about 2), peeledd, thinly sliced
1 cup Tex Mex Shredded Cheese
1/2 cup salsa
1/4 cup sour cream

Heat your oven to 400. Springle the chicken with seasoning mix. Place 1/4 of the potatoes on the center of each of 4 large sheets of heavy-duty foil; top with chicken, cheese and salsa.

Fold foil to make 4 packets, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Place on baking sheet.

Bake 30-35 minutes, cool for 5. Cut slits in foil to release steam before opening them. Top with sour cream.

Easy, right? Super yummy. I just sliced up some cucumbers and ate those right along side with the chicken. The potatoes underneath are just enough to be considered a "side dish". It's a perfect meal if you need something quick and easy to do.

Easiest Quinoa "Salad"

Who doesn't like a 5-ingredient dinner/snack? Granted, there could be a little more prep time depending on what you have laying around but for a mom that's always on the go with Baseball Practice and who knows what else...this is perfect. I cooked my Quinoa in my rice cooker, it was super easy to just dump it in there and walk away. If you don't have a rice cooker, just follow the instructions on the back of the bag. You can find Quinoa in the rice section of the grocery store usually, if not there check by the Organics. Side note : Whether I cook my Quinoa in a pot or in my rice cooker, I always cook it in Chicken Broth, adds more flavor! You'll notice the difference between water and Chicken Broth, I promise! If you have some cooked chicken already, perfect. If not, I usually get a rotisserie chicken and just shred it. Luckily, Matthew's mom has been buying me whole chickens and cooking them in the crockpot for me (because she's awesome) and then sending
