This is so simple and turns out perfectly every time.

You can add any other seasoning you so choose: tarragon, thyme, rosemary, Italian seasoning, herbs de provence, etc.  Just prep and bake...the oven does all the work.

Moroccan Chicken with Green Olives and Lemon

354.  Do you ever have the desire to take the most basic ingredient and create something so completely different, out of your comfort zone.  This is what happened with my chicken tonight.  We all make rote recipes over and over that are our go-to and we don't need to follow directions any more.  But this recipe was so delightful and delicious and I paired it with lentils.

I paired the Moroccan Chicken with a side of Lentils.

Basically, I followed the package directions but used chicken stock, finely chopped onion and garlic for flavor and salt and pepper.  

This was a delicious meal and a great detour from our usual palate pleasers.

Curry Squash Soup

 353.  Our Farmers Market in town has beautiful homegrown, fresh produce on a weekly basis every Saturday morning.  This week I picked up lovely squash to make soup.
This recipe is similar to my Curry Butternut Squash Soup I made years ago.  I've made a few adjustments and I love the flavor.  Here is a recipe card for you:

This is a delicious soup and is so warm and satisfying.  It also freezes well and you get your turmeric fix as well *wink *wink.
