Moxy Thoughts

February 5, 2020 in ,

It’s Wednesday night, which means we have 2 basketball practices, homework, and a busy night ahead of us.  That’s why dinner needs to be quick and easy, but filled with protein and filling.  Tonight, we made this amazing One Pan Easy Tuscan Chicken Recipe.  You can enjoy this recipe in less than 30 minutes from refrigerator to table.

Now I have to admit, this Tuscan Chicken Recipe is an adaptation of a few versions of the ones I found on Pinterest.  However, our Tuscan Chicken Recipe doesn’t have as many calories or fat because I decided to skip the heavy cream.  To be honest, that’s just because it didn’t happen to be in the refrigerator already!  This recipe uses the Moxy Kitchen Mediterranean Seasoning mix.

Chicken is something that I always have it the fridge, but often get very bored making.  There’s only so many times you can make chicken tacos and chicken tenders, am I right?  This One Pan Easy Tuscan Chicken Recipe is an easy go-to because it feels more complex, even though it truly isn’t.

If you’re on a Keto or other diet that minimizes tomatoes, you can swap them out and use mushrooms or just skip it all together.  Similarly, if you’re not using dairy, you can definitely leave the cheese off the top.  However if you’re not limiting dairy, please do add it, it’s such a satisfying bit of melty cheese on top.

If you do make this recipe as is, you’ll be getting tons of great nutrition.   This one pan easy Tuscan Chicken recipe has spinach and tomatoes, so you’ll get Omega 3’s, Vitamin A, and Vitamin C.  Plus, it’s high protein, low sugar and low fat.

We hope you enjoy this recipe and let us know what modifications you made.  It’s always fun to see what people do with our recipes!
