I started my day at Barre Bee Fit where Michelle worked me to the core, no pun intended. BBF recently got new resistance bands which are a great added bonus to the workout. This morning, Michelle had us loop the resistance band around our thighs while in a plank.
Love it!

Brittany and I wanted to cook dinner together and since she is getting married in less than 6 months she wanted to stick with something on the lighter side. We worked together to come up with this Chicken Cacciatore recipe that is the perfect healthy comfort meal.
L & B’s Bridal Chicken Cacciatore
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 red pepper sliced
- 1 yellow pepper sliced
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 can of organic fire roasted tomatoes
- 1 tsp of salt
- 1/2 tsp of pepper
- 1/2 cup of low sodium chicken stock
- 1 tsp of garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp of dried oregano
- Non stick cooking spray
- 2 tbsp of olive oil
Spray a cast iron skillet with non-stick cooking spray and 1 tbsp of olive oil. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Brown chicken on medium to high heat for 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown on each side. Remove from pan and set aside.
Add 1 tbsp of olive oil and add peppers and onions to skillet until tender. Add salt, pepper, tomatoes, chicken stock, garlic powder, and oregano. 
Place cooked veggies and chicken in a baking dish and bake at 400 degrees for 23 minutes. Check the half way through cooking, if the veggies look dry, add more chicken stock to make a “sauce like” consistency.
This meal was saucy, spicy, flavorful, and delicious. Pairs perfectly with some red wine
Serve and enjoy!
