Quick tip: When assembling, sprinkle with a bit more cheese on top if you like it extra cheesy.

Cooking at home with lean, health-conscious ingredients is a great way to have a flavorful meal without throwing all dietary concerns to the wind. This Healthy Orange Chicken recipe is a nice choice if you like the taste of Chinese food but need to watch your cholesterol, sodium, or blood sugar levels.

I have frequently enjoyed Asian-style orange chicken at restaurants in the past, and as it turns out, it isn’t that difficult a dish to put together. There is a marinating step, but you only need to marinate the chicken for about half an hour. And the agave and low-sodium soy sauce combined nicely with the other ingredients to make a delicious lightened-up sauce (while keeping the sodium levels and glycemic index relatively low).

Quick tip: Make sure you allow to marinate for at least 25 minutes for best results.

Nothing Beats This Classic Southern Recipe

This Southern Chicken Salad is great for a lunch or light dinner at home, but it also makes a bunch, keeps well for a couple of days in the refrigerator, and is readily expandable, making it a great tailgate, picnic, or potluck option. I also enjoy snacking on this salad for lunch. So yummy – this recipe certainly is a keeper! Chicken salad is one thing that is easy to make but also easy to mess up. This recipe uses just the right amount of mayo and a good balance of sweet and savory flavors to bring everything together beautifully.

Leave it to the southerners to come up with such an amazing recipe. They never seem to fail! And if you want to make this extra healthy, you can leave out the sugar and use low-fat mayonnaise. It will still taste absolutely scrumptious!

If I can recall right, i do beleive thatw e had this chicken salad recipe for my sister’s bridal shower. Yes! Yes, we did! It was so good and we ate it on croissants. Whata  great memory of good food and fun times 🙂

The sooner you make this casserole the better!

If the pizza casserole is a nice taste of southern Italy, this Parmesan Chicken is a nice, easy-to-make taste of northern Italy. It’s a satisfying recipe, with only six ingredients (including the seasoning) and a 9″ x 13″ baking dish needed to put it together.

On top of it all, you can have it ready in under an hour! Now, that’s what I call the perfect weeknight meal – especially if you are trying to balance work, kids, school, chores, and still want to serve your family a hearty meal.

If you want something easy to make, with a decent amount of cheese (but not TOO much) and with a creamy sauce, give this chicken parmesan casserole a try. Dicing up the chicken may be a little bit of work, but it really shortens the baking time, and everything after that is super-simple and low-hassle. You’ll have no trouble putting this together even at the end of a rather hectic midweek day.

This is every kid’s favorite meal!

If you are looking for an easy, creamy casserole to make for dinner, this Chicken Alfredo Casserole recipe is a good choice.

It brings gourmet flavor to your dinner table without much hassle or time investment. I have a box full of go-to recipes for those busy days when I want to serve something nice but don’t have the time to slave away in the kitchen. This is one of those recipes. Chicken Alfredo has a fancy name, and if you like creamy, cheese-rich dishes, it does sport great Italian-style flavor.

Making it into a casserole is a great way to speed up the process and reduce the hassle. After all, you’ve probably got hungry kids and family members to feed, right? Who wants to listen to them howl about how hungry they are any longer than you have too? Not me!

So, I’m always thankful for recipes like this because it’s easy to make, tastes good, and very filling. Everyone is usually happy with it, too! This includes my picky eater son 🙂

Chicken Cacciatore is a hearty, earthy, robust stew that makes for a great one-pot family meal. It’s quick to make, and it’s surprisingly easy to put together, as well.

This creation is also often called hunter’s stew, but I think that the name “chicken cacciatore” just suits it better. There isn’t much in the way of complexity here, but it does manage good depth of flavor without any fancy methods and with only a modest time investment.

This is another great dose of Southern comfort, made simple with the help of your slow cooker. Other than a little bit of prep involved with making the dumplings (don’t worry, it’s not hard), this Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings recipe pretty much consists of dumping it all in and forgetting about it.

Mother liked to make a good pot of chicken and dumplings when the weather turned cold (well, cold for the South, anyway), especially when someone in the family was feeling a bit under the weather. And though it never seemed like that difficult a recipe, even cooked on the stove, it’s even easier made in the Crock-Pot.
