What's for Dinner?!?!

I hate to admit this but I am such a creature of habit when it comes to my meals.  Cooking is not something I enjoy doing, nor am I very creative when it comes to planning and cooking meals.  

I wish I was but I have never been.  I totally wish I had my own chef!  

I typically have a salad with fish or grilled chicken for dinner each night. I know...totally Plain Jane!  

Tonight I decided to give the 21 Day Fix approved Almond Crusted Chicken recipe a try and let me tell you, it was delicious!  Everyone gave it a thumbs up in our house.  

I will definitely make this again.  Let me know if you give it a try and what you think!!
