Green Chili with Chicken

It’s fall ya’ll! And it’s chili month over here at Kim’s Healthy Eats. I had originally created this recipe for my friends over at Simply Organic, but I decided it was too good not to share with all of you!

Some of my favorite things about this chili recipe is that it doesn’t take long to cook, it can easily be made in one pot, and tastes absolutely delish. Continue reading Green Chili with Chicken

Twelve Stones, Loved It!

This past weekend we had family visiting our new home here in Flower Mound, TX.  It was really great to see everyone and the kids had a blast.  It’s been such a big change moving our family away from everything we’ve ever known.

Twelve StonesSaturday night was adult night out on the town so of course we had to find a place to have a nice dinner since we wouldn’t have the added stress of keeping the kids happy while we eat.  I chose to take them to Twelve Stones since I heard so many wonderful things about it, it was nice and close to home and let’s face it, I personally really wanted to go there finally. 🙂

Let’s just say they met all expectations!  The service was top notch and the food was absolutely delicious.  It was a perfect TX evening so of course we had to sit outside.   Continue reading Twelve Stones, Loved It!

Ahhhh! It’s back to school time! As much as I love summer vacation I really needed to get myself back on a schedule. We had such a fantastic summer visiting our family and friends in Pennsylvania. We did so many fun things and of course went my favorite place on earth, the beach! I hope you all had as great as a summer as I did!

Chicken Quinoa Enchilada Bake

I know, I know, I have yet another quinoa recipe. I bought this huge bag at Costco and I haven’t even made a dent in it. Good thing the fam loves the stuff!  Annnd it just so happens to be Cinco De Mayo next week so I was thinking Mexican.

Chicken Quinoa Enchilada Bake

This is an awesome week night recipe and leaves plenty of leftovers for lunch the next day. And my favorite part is I only used one pan for this dish! I have mentioned before how much I loooove my Lodge cast iron skillet, but it truly is one of my favorite pans. It’s inexpensive, durable, and goes from stove top to oven.
