Ranch Chicken

One of my husband's favorite meals is baked ranch chicken with a parmesan and cheddar cheese crust. It's pretty easy to make and tastes amazing. All you need are some thin sliced chicken breasts, a bottle of ranch dressing, a ranch seasoning packet, shredded parm., and shredded cheddar cheese. Start off by seasoning the chicken with a little salt and pepper and while that marinates you can make your cheesy topping. In a bowl mix one ranch packet, a 1/2 cup of parm. cheese and 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese and set aside. Pour the Ranch dressing in a bowl big enough so that you can dunk the chicken in it. Prepare a sheet pan (I like to cover the whole thing in foil for easy cleanup). Dunk all of the pieces of chicken in the ranch and place on the sheet pan. Once finished, grab your cheese mixture and cover the top of all the slices. Bake for 40 minutes at 375 and enjoy. These pair really well with white rice, but we're low carbers in our home so I substitute for cauliflower rice and it tastes just as amazing!

  2. I can never bake chicken and have it taste decent (always too dry). But this sounds like it might actually work even for me!

Intentions

I chose intentions as my "One little Word" this year. I was chatting about work/life with one of my best friends who has been in my life for over 17 years a few months ago and she gave me probably the best advice I needed in that exact moment, which was to set my intention each day before arriving at work. This happened to be around the same time that my colleagues were sharing their "OLW's" and I thought I would try it out as well. I thought about my conversation with my friend and it hit me...intentions... I wasn't sure if it was the right kind of word but it felt right to me. It is a word that could fit in every aspect of my life. I am constantly thinking about my intentions and they have quickly become the fuel of my day to day. Intentions. Setting  the  intention. Treating people with good intentions. Doing everything with the best intention no matter the situation. What's your "OLW"?

“You don’t sound like your name is Ana.”

My husband and I have pretty tricky names. Tricky for others to pronounce and even trickier when people try to spell them. We are really spoiled with delicious takeout options  in the area where we live and will oftentimes order in on the weekends. I’m usually the one to place the orders via the phone because I have dietary restrictions (low carb diet). When placing the orders I always tell the person on the phone my name is Ana just to avoid any confusion and it works like a charm. This morning was different. I was up pretty early feeding my niece and my ever so thoughtful husband asked if I wanted some breakfast takeout. We usually never order out for breakfast but today was different. We were too tired to cook. He dials the number to our favorite breakfast spot that’s about two minutes away from home. He places our order and at the end the person on the other line asks him; “what name should I put this order under?” He replies without thinking; “Ana...” We hear a long pause until a
Gratitude  On this last day of the blogging challenge I woke up feeling grateful. Grateful for the opportunity to participate in this challenge that forces me to find small parts of my day that stick out just enough to write about it. Grateful for waking up on this beautiful island on day two if our spring break vacation. Grateful for all the people I have around me everyday. Grateful for the opportunity I get to sit with the little humans and enhance their already wonderful minds. Grateful for my beautiful little family. And most importantly, grateful for this wonderful life.
