Day 4: Baked Chicken and Rice


I bought a ton of tomatoes when I was at the store so I've indulged this week with Tomato and Mozzarella Salad every night.  It is super easy to make and is great as a salad before a meal or as a full meal.  Yesterday I used a couple tomatoes and most of the container of mozzarella and made it a meal.  Today I went with one tomato and the leftover mozzarella.  I have my favorite olive oil that I get from a place up in Napa and then some balsamic reduction and pepper.  It is super easy to make and always tastes great.


Tonight I went with another recipe I found on Real Simple over the weekend.  This was Baked Chicken and Rice. I omitted a couple of the ingredients in an effort to make this a bit easier to make and scaled down on the portions to make it for one.  In the end the rice didn't cook very well so I was overall disappointed with the meal.  I have some ideas for trying again next time so we shall see how it goes.  It was pretty easy to put together.  Everything goes in a bowl and then everything goes in that great Pyrex baking pan I mentioned last time.  If you try this let me know how it goes with cooking the rice!
