Here is your weekly dose of Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner. Your weekly post of the fun, entertaining, and inquisitive things we have going on. Today, I wanted to share with you some of my favorite simple recipes. They’re so easy to prepare yet one hundred percent guaranteed, these recipes will help you start the day right.
Breakfast
Chocolate Banana Bread – it’s the BEST
You know when you have bananas that don’t look inviting anymore, but they’re not BAD so you don’t want to throw them away? I certainly have and that’s when I do one of two things:
- Peel and freeze the bananas for a later use
- Make Chocolate Banana Bread
I’ve tried several different simple recipes and this chocolate banana bread recipe by two peas & their pod is BY FAR my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!
Give it a try and tell me what you think!
Lunch
Spring Goddess Sandwich – on an EVERYTHING BAGEL
I’m such a sucker for a delicious Everything Bagel, they’re just so delicious! Wouldn’t you agree?
We’ve featured Sylvia’s recipes before, she does such a great job with all her recipes and this Spring Goddess Sandwich is no exception.
Feel free to change it up a bit and use arugula instead of sprouts, tuna salad instead of chickpea salad and regular mayo instead of the vegan version if you’d like.
Make this simple recipe your own and enjoy!
Dinner
Traeger Chicken – Super EASY and So Delicious!
One of our favorite tools at home is our two Traeger Grills. Yes, you read that right, two!
These Traeger grills make simple recipes even more exciting to prepare!
We have a smaller one for everyday use, and the big boy for when we have 3 pizzas that need grilling; or pre-COVID when we had 30+ people over and lots of side dishes cooking all at once.
One of the easiest recipes we love to make on our Traeger is Grilled Chicken.
Seriously it’s never been so easy, the hardest part is to RESIST opening the grill lid and peeking in on the chicken cooking.
The Smoked Chicken with Apricot BBQ Glaze can also be made with only one whole chicken instead of two.
It’s so delicious! You can also use other jams you have on hand.
But, never serve this chicken without a cocktail. Cocktails make simple recipes extra special! Check out A La Carte’s Tequila Sunrise and make your dinner a truly delightful experience.
