Ick.
That's how I feel.
One kid was sick last night/today.
One kid decided to wear a whiney pants crown.
I have a nasty headache.
Ate too many peanut butter bars.
Didn't make dinner.
Didn't take any pictures.
Haven't burned more than 1600 calories today.
Boo0hoo.
I'm whining...because everyone else seems to be doing it,
so whine can't I?!

Tonight's dinner...Oregano-lemon chicken thighs.
Here we go:)

Start with some big ol honkin' bone-in chicken things. About 6 pieces or 3 lbs. I took the skin off mine, because well,....look


This is gross...who wants to eat that?! Anyway, put them in a 13X9 pan.


The rest of your ingredients consist of 2 tblspn of honey, 3 tblspn lemon juice, 1 tblspn olive oil, 3 garlic cloves-minced, 2 tspn dried oregano.


I have limited utensils and know-how on mincing so here's to learning!



After you are done mincing, combine all ingredients in a small bowl, or large, whichever you prefer to wash later:)


Pour this mixture over the chicken...so it looks like this
<--------

Put it inot the oven at 375 for 30-35 minutes...until it's not leaking colored juice anymore.



Enjoy:)

Tonight's cooking delight,...barbecue potato wedges & spinach stuffed portabello mushrooms.


The potato wedges call for 2 lbs of red potatoes, cut into wedges.


After you get the little guys drawn and quartered spray a 15X10 by 1-inch deep pan. I didn't have that size, so I used a 9X13. It worked just as good.


Get em all cozy together and drizzle 1 Tblspn honey and 2 tblspns melted butter (I mixed together) over the taters.


Because I tried to take a picture while drizzling, I mixed them up a bit to get the ooey gooey goodness all over them.



Next you sprinkle 3 teasp. of chili powder, 1/2 tspn salt, 1/4 tspn garlic powder, and 1/4 tspn pepper over the top.

Pop them in the oven at 450 for roughly 30 minutes.

Take them out and enjoy!


Enjoy them with some meaty portabello mushrooms:)
Please...make sure your fridge doesn't have a death wish on any sort of produce....frozen mushrooms do not cooperate!
You want to remove the stem and all the gills...I'm not going to lie..it's rather gross!


After you get them all cleaned up, stick them in a large frying pan with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Fry them for 10-15 minutes until they are tender.


Turn them once.



While those are cooking get your other ingredients ready in a small bowl.


A 10 oz package of spinach, thawed, drained and dry, can of diced tomatoes, 1/2 cup romano cheese, 2 tblspn scallions and some salt. Mix em up all nice and pretty in a bowl and spoon it into your mushrooms(that are awaiting on a bake pan on top of aluminum foil)

Top with mozzarella cheese. I like cheese so I used more than the recipe calls for:) Bake them at 375 for 10-15 minutes or until they are bubbly. Yes, my mozzarella isn't bubbling...I think I needed fresher:)



Enjoy:D
