We're having really nice temps and sunshine all week, so I decided to make salads for a change.
I've been using lime zest instead of lemon in our muffins and boy what a difference that makes. It started when I didn't have a lemon to zest for the muffins one day and used lime instead. It's so delicious! We are hooked 😊
I started buying organic chicken breasts at Aldi and what a huge difference that is. I've been so sick of the so-called non-GMO chicken at Sams that looks like a string of something (it doesn't even look like meat anymore). The best part is that there's no funky smell to the organic chicken. I'm guessing that smell is from the 'broth' that they inject into the meat. I sure as heck don't miss that junk. The organic chicken only costs $1.71 more per lb than the non-GMO Sams chicken. I'll gladly pay that price, cause I'm a food snob. I feel a whole lot better about eating the organic chicken. I've checked the price at Kroger and they charge $6.99 lb! Crazy! Aldi for the win!
Bon Appetit Peeps!
Go Aldi! 😊 I love adding lime juice to my chicken as it helps to tenderize it and tastes great.
ReplyDeleteI love limes Belinda! I've only used it with fajita chicken. I'm going to try it with my baked chicken breasts too. Thanks for the tip!
DeleteAn interesting change in using the lime. We don't allow anything to be injected into our chickens here in Canada as far as I know, but I will need to check and make sure.
ReplyDeleteYour menu sounds wonderful.
God bless.
Thank you Jackie! I've always heard that Canadians have far better quality food than we have here, especially your bread. Will be interesting to learn what you discover about your meat.
