Baked Pesto Chicken

I am BORED..

Are you bored? If you are, I think you should join me.

What should we do? Have a drinking spree? go out and watch a movie? or go shopping?

Naah, I think I’m just sleepy and  I need a nap…hundreds of them.

The past few days, I feel like I’m so tired and depressed and without inspiration…. do you think I need more chocolates?

No?

Okay, then sleep is what I really need. I just wish there’s some store where I could buy bottled sleep.

Anyway, I made baked chicken pesto over the weekend. Ykaie had spaghetti al pesto for both her lunch and dinner. Ykaie loves pesto on her pasta. I love pesto on anything~ pasta, meat and potatoes.

That is why I make my own Pesto.

You can buy a ready-made one at the grocery. I recommend Gourmet’s but you can totally buy any brand you want.

Now, for the recipe..it is easy as 1-2-3…

Ingredients:

400g chicken thigh fillets
½ cup Basil Pesto
½ cup grated low fat mozzarella/cheddar cheese

Directions:

  • Lay the chicken fillet in a baking dish or a baking pan.
  • Spread pesto on top of the chicken fillet and make sure they are spread equally.
  • Cover the dish/pan with aluminum foil and bake in the over for 20-25 minutes.
  • Remove foil and sprinkle grated cheese on top.
  • Bake for another 5-10 minutes without cover.
  • Serve hot.

♥You can serve this over rice or pasta but if you are on the South Beach Diet, you can eat this as a meal.

I’m sending this over to Miz Helen’s Country Cottage.

Kaya share ko sa inyo tong bago Kong #momfindsph - BETTER LIFE household cleaners (@betterlifeph ).They’re biodegradable, has plant-based ingredients, and sulfates-free. 

Pinakagusto ko yung All Purpose Cleaner kasi spray and wipe lang and it cleans easily. Ginagamit ko to to clean my stove top, air fryer, ref, microwave, dining table, at coffee table.

As a LACTUMama, I'm always on the lookout for acti As a LACTUMama, I'm always on the lookout for activities that will help support Twinkle's Immunity, Brain and Bones. Good thing this All Around Development Kit from @Lactum3 arrived over the week, kaya naman ito ang aming bonding activity this weekend!

Ang saya ni Twinkle because it has all the fun exercises and activities she really enjoys doing. We planted Arugula, Mustard, and Alfalfa seeds, painted the post, solved a puzzle, and played Twister. Afterwards, I made sure to give her a glass of cold Vitaminized Lactum 3+ which helps support her all-around development in Immunity, Brain and Bones with proper nutrition and stimulation.
