Going Tribal!

ICBIT!! [I can’t believe it’s Thursday!!]

This week has gone by in a flash, as they always tend to do when there is a lot going on. I apologize for the lack of posts but fortunately have had some more wonderful Guest Benders to keep things current 🙂 Additionally, I am thrilled to report that my new business is now officially official. What better way to celebrate than by cooking more often — and sharing it with you, of course!

Recently, a sample sent to me from the people at Tribal Moose called for just such a kitchen occasion.

It’s not every day that you hear about Cranberry BBQ Sauce. Much less get offered the opportunity to sample! I was very intrigued and decided to use it to make my Lazy Chef Chicken recipe, minus the “Smokey Maple” and with the new addition of antioxidants.

Ingredients (serves 2):

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400* while prepping. Rub each chicken breast with roughly 1/2 tbsp. of sweet mesquite. Dash with ground pepper until seasoned to your liking. Then comes the key ingredient: cranberry BBQ sauce. I coated each chicken breast with 2 tbsp. (one serving) of the sauce.

Bake in the oven for approximately 30 minutes. During that time, you can get in some quality blog reading 😉 Or perhaps follow the latest foodie conversations on Twitter.

I served the chicken with vegetables cooked in olive oil over the stove — just a bag of frozen veggies because it was quick and easy. I was very happy with the result!

And how did the chicken taste? PHENOMENAL! I am a big fan of the cranberry addition to the BBQ sauce. It’s something I never would have thought of on my own, but once you try it you see why someone else did 🙂 I highly recommend taking a look — thanks to Tribal Moose for the opportunity!

I hope all of you have been having fabulous weeks. What are the big weekend plans?

My goals are the following:

  • Continue working on business website — to be launched on Monday!
  • Research our “marketplace” and potential outreach
  • Catch up on blogs and emails! {Looking forward to reading up on what you’ve been up to!}

Abrazos,

    Weekend should be fun! We’re heading to Nick’s parents tonight to visit them and his pregnant sister/husband! She’s SO cute right now. We’ll be celebrating Nick’s dads birthday and *hopefully hitting up a Maple Syrup Festival if the weather cooperates.

  5. Ow! Cranberry bbq? That sounds out of this world fabulous. I bet it’d go great with turkey (kind of thanksgiving-ish!). Your dish looks so pretty with the fresh veggies. Congrats on officially having the business up and running! I am so glad its the weekend!! Not a lot planned- we have to do taxes

  6. I really want to try some of that bbq sauce. I love trying new ones, and I honestly don’t think I have met a bbq sauce I didn’t like. I am excited for your new business web page, I will definately be checking it out! The chicken looks great by the way, definately something I would eat up!

  7. Glad the business is going well. How exciting!!

    I am a weirdo and hate the taste of BBQ sauce. That sometimes poses a problem since I live in the south!
