Chicken is one of my favorite foods to eat. When I was growing up, my mother always insisted on a well balanced diet and enjoyed trying out various healthy chicken recipes. She was always careful when she cooked chicken, making sure it stayed moist and flavorful. I would quickly finish every bite because it tasted so good.
Now that I am a mom with three boys and a husband to feed, I find myself searching the Internet and scouring cookbooks for healthy chicken recipes that I can feed my family. It seems they are always hungry and they happen to be quite fond of chicken too.
My youngest likes oven baked fried chicken, while the other two enjoy grilled chicken avocado sandwiches. My husband prefers my Chicken Parmesan with extra tomatoes. Tomatoes are full of antioxidants and are best eaten with protein for extra health benefits. The girls from the club prefer my Ficarelli Special; a healthy chicken recipe that includes grilled chicken, Bibb lettuce, tomato and goat cheese.
If you are like me, you get tired of the same boring food week after week. Even dining out, I sometimes feel like all the food tastes the same. That is when I decide that it’s time to find something different to make. I don’t always have the ingredients that are called for so I create my own variation of healthy chicken recipes and most turn out delicious. I guess between watching my mother and grandmother cook and getting tips about what tastes good from my boys, I’ve turned out to be a pretty good cook.
I’m a personal trainer, specializing in women’s fitness, so I encourage the women that I work with to eat healthy foods and to always include a protein at every meal. We exchange healthy recipes, healthy dessert recipes and healthy snacks that we share with one another. It’s a fun way to emphasize a healthy lifestyle.
