For the most part, despite the Lucious, hearty, and yummy looking snacks you may see all over my Instagram Feed, My family and I actually like to try to eat a little healthier than not. By that I don’t mean we get every single thing right, I’m sure, but we try to have some decently wholesome meals. That being said, I always aim to keep flavor in the mix, and always want to deliver that to you, because… I can’t be the only one that feels this way right? This is what we actually had for dinner tonight, a greek seasoned chicken with sautéed shallots and tomatoes, and a greek yogurt dill sauce, that is some seasonings short of a traditional taziki sauce? But holy yum! It reminded me a lot of a chicken gyros dish, it was freakin fantastic, and not awfully too bad for ya! I hope you and your family enjoy this meal as much as we did!
