If there is something I miss the most about being a child is that back then time meant absolutely nothing to me. I was never rushing through the day, and I was completely oblivious to the day to day madness. Now, welcome to adulthood, when rushing is the norm, and there are never enough hours in a day to get done with everything you plan.

As a stay-at-home mum of 2 (well, let’s say kind of a part-time food blogger), I am used to run around like a headless chicken: drop the older girl in nursery, take little one to playgroups, parks, etc, come home, do all the cooking, cleaning, washing, go back to pick up the girl from nursery, come back to all the evening and bed time routine.

And, when it all gets nice and quiet (providing that girls don’t keep waking up), squeeze in a few hours of blogging at ridiculous hours at night. Then drop like a fly for a few hours, and start again in the morning. Fun, hey?

So, yeah, quick and easy recipes are a must if I want to keep my sanity, and not get crazy busy all the time. I love meat, and chicken, especially chicken breast cooks so quickly, it makes sense to use it in as many recipes as possible. Luckily, little ones hardly ever protests if I offer them chicken dishes, which is a bonus.

No need to cook the same dish over and over again, I will show you how to make the most of the good old chicken breast, and transform dinner in the favourite time of the day.
