The Perfect Dinner
A perfect day had to be completed with a perfect meal ...
After a long work day, I am all about fast, organic, healthy and delicious meals so I can kick back with friends, a book, or even a movie. I tend to “test” meals on the weekends and see how complicated they are and if they are good mid-week meals for me to cook.
I love ethnic food and am totally into flavor so this Fusion Chicken hits it on all marks for me……am sure you will agree.
