Yes I know these aren't skewers, but they were supposed to be! It was pouring rain all day, so I decided I was not going to get drenched outside just to grill these. Instead, I threw everything in a pan on the stove top and the meal still came out tasting delicious! You do need to prep the marinade before hand and let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes before cooking, so keep that in mind if you choose to try this one. Also, if you can, let the chicken marinate overnight for more flavor. I paired this with one of my favorite fried cauliflower rice recipes and absolutely loved how the meal turned out. I know summer is officially gone, but if there are still pineapples at your local grocery store and there's a weekend with warm weather, this recipe is worth making!

Who doesn't love Fall!? We went apple picking the other day and got some fresh apples and cider to put to use. I paired these two recipes together for a seriously comforting Fall meal! The chicken was ridiculously simply to make. If you are not a fan of mustard, do not worry - I could not pick up on any hint of mustard in the meal once it was done. For the mash, I changed up the main ingredients a little bit, so check out the original recipe link below if you want to stick to using sweet potatoes, white potatoes, and carrots. Instead, I picked up a bag of frozen butternut squash and frozen tri-colored carrots, in addition to the sweet potatoes. Since I used a large amount of sweet potatoes, I boiled them separately from the squash and carrots, then combined everything later in the food processor. This made for a much smoother mash then the potato masher could do, but not necessary if you don't want to. I must admit I was a little nervous for how the mash would turn out. However, it ended up tasting truly amazing and was a great pair with the apple cider chicken! Please don't be afraid to try that mash out! It's also a great way to sneak extra and different nutrients into your diet... just saying. Anyways, I 100% recommend giving this meal a try sometime this Fall!

Original recipe found here This was an unexpected game changer! I prepared the grated sweet potato and spices the night before, so all I had to do the next day was throw everything in the crockpot. Well that was the plan, but since I did not get home until later in the day, I actually threw everything in the Instant Pot for 25 minutes instead. There are not many ingredients to this recipe whatsoever and it turned out tasting plenty flavorful and delicious! I loved it paired with the Garlic Cauliflower Mash recipe too, but that is just my preference. All I added to my mash was cauliflower, garlic cloves, salt, garlic powder, and 1/2 Cup broth (I left out the extra added fat this time since the meatloaf had enough for me). I'm always looking for new ways to eat sweet potatoes and I will definitely be throwing this recipe into the rotation for now on. Plus, it was seriously too easy to make that it's a great recipe to save for meal prep. Definitely recommend giving this one a try!
