Hummus, Chicken and Avocado Flat Bread recipe and #ChickenApp Twitter Party! #ChickenDotCa

by

There are some nights were we want a light, easy and fun meal.  We like to do Appis for Dinner where we’ll do up a few appetizers and everyone can have a bit of everything.

One of our favourites is the Hummus, Chicken and Avocado Flat Bread. It has only a few ingredients making it easy to make and it’s healthy! Plus the girls like it which is a huge plus!

Hummus, Chicken & Avocado Flat Bread
Serves 3
Chicken meets hummus and avocado in this quick, filling and amazingly delicious baked flat bread. Lean chicken and the chickpeas in the hummus give a good amount of protein to help you stay full longer. The creaminess of the hummus and avocado make it easy not to miss the more traditional cheese often on baked flat bread.

Back to school with @ChickenFarmers! #SchoolYourChicken #TwitterParty #PintoWin

by

Back to school is just around the corner!

My twitter feed is buzzing with back to school sales and some people’s back to school photos!  My girls go back after Labour Day so we have just a few weeks to start getting ready.  Our back to school shopping will include new clothes and shoes, school supplied and bags.

The girls are very excited!

Me…not so much.

Stop struggling with lunch ideas!

I’m not a fan of making lunches.  I find that I sometimes get stuck in a rut and end up making the same old thing, over and over.  This year, I’m getting prepared with some great lunch ideas from Chicken.ca!!

My girls love hot meals in their Thermos.  They were easy to find too! I went to  Chicken.ca and used their “Advanced Search” to find Lunch meal ideas.  And there were so many to choose from. Here are a couple that I plan to make.

Grilling and summer go hand in hand! #chickendotca

by

We do a lot of grilling during the summer months.  Sure we grill during the winter, but not as much.

Since we spend every weekend camping, a lot of meals are cooked on the grill or over the fire.  Last weekend I prepared a yummy grilled chicken with a side of camp-fire potatoes and onions. 

Camp-fire Potatoes and Onions:

 5-6 red potatoes, thinly sliced
1 white onion, sliced
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 tbsp butter

Directions:

1. Start the fire and let it burn until the coals are nice and hot!

Grilling and summer go hand in hand! #chickendotca

2. Prepare ingredients.

3. Wrap in tin foil with the shine side in.

4. Place in hot coals in the fire.

5. Flip them and check them to make sure that they don’t burn.

 

Chicken Rub:

1. Mix up in a bowl:

1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoon onion salt
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

2. Rub the spice mix on the chicken

3. BBQ
