One Tray Balsamic Chicken with Cherry Tomatoes
- Main meals, One Tray Dinners, Uncategorized
An easy weeknight dinner thats doable even on the busiest days! Balsamic and Cherry Tomatoes are a match made in heaven
I love a one pan/dish meal for two reasons 1. So easy – 5 minutes prep, 2. Only one dish to clean up!
And actually this is my main tip for sticking to healthy eating – make it easy! Easy to prep and easy to clean up.
I guarantee you will start cooking more healthy foods if you follow this philosophy.
So here is a great midweek dinner. Whether you’ve just gotten home from work or witching hour is starting, throw this meal together in 5 minutes then let the oven do the work for you.
It also keeps really well for 2-3 days if you want to prep ahead for lunches. Enjoy!
