Honey Mustard Chicken Breasts

So yesterday at one point the (client name redacted) CEO had a prep call with the Today Show and I knew I could step away for a few minutes. So I made the easiest go to, baked chicken breasts: 
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup dijon mustard
  • a little less than 1/4 cup mayonnaise (I was like ??? but apparently it's a thing with honey mustard sauce)
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • dash of paprika
  • whisk it all together
Baste chicken breasts with the honey mustard sauce on both sides and marinate for a couple hours
Bake at 375 for 45 minutes 

I made some wild rice as a side, super easy!

We ordered Jimmy Johns and you can blame Fox New

So late yesterday afternoon Fox 32 here in Chicago requested to interview Justin from (name redacted) again, since Pritzker discussed the decontamination unit in his briefing. All well and good, except we spent the early evening pulling together a briefer, updated messaging, waiting with baited breath for the Zoom link to come through, etc. (Side note: shout-out to (name redacted) for being an absolute machine with briefers I'm requesting at literally a moment's notice all week!). We thought the interview would run at 5:45 so I watched the whole damn newscast, only to learn they recorded it and used it at 9pm! By the time I was finished I hadn't gotten to the store, we had no food, and ended up ordering delivery. So boooo Fox News!

Rose's Roasted Red Potatoes

We had a pork chop repeat last night as the main course, but this is quite possibly my favorite side dish: About 3 lbs red potatoes, wash and dice into bite-size pieces. Do not peel the skins. Heat your oven to 400 Put the diced potatoes in a large baking dish (13x9), and add about 1/4 cup of EVOO (enough to cover all of them but not soaking) Season with oregano (lots, like 2-3 tbsp), garlic powder, black pepper, and a little kosher salt. Stir that all around so they're evenly seasoned. Bake for about an hour and stir them a couple times during that hour. When the potatoes are soft and you can cut right through them, they're ready. Simple but delicious and works with nearly any chicken/steak/pork dish!

Middle Eastern Veggie-Falafel Bowl

I honestly struggled with what to call this because there was so much thrown in. So I'm keeping it simple:  Make 1 cup of basmati rice Veggie prep:  1/2 bell pepper sliced into strips 1/4 onion also sliced 1 piece of celery diced 1 small potato diced into very small pieces Sautee the veggies in EVOO but start the potato first (give it about 3 minutes before adding the other veggies). Once all of the veggies are cooking, season with curry powder, turmeric and cumin (enough to turn them all yellow).  Heat one can of black beans in a separate pot. (Garbanzo beans are more along the lines of middle eastern food, but Bryce doesn't really like them so I went with black beans. Call if fusion.) Once the veggies are softened, set them aside and cover to keep warm. In the same pan, heat one can of light coconut milk, and begin adding red curry paste (use the fork method that I've described, about 3 forks' worth of paste).  Once the curry paste is mixed in,
