Extra Descriptions:

Oven crispy chicken thighs are free range, bone in and skin on thighs, lightly tossed with flour seasoned with Adobo, oregano, s&p, and parmesan cheese.  High temperature baking yields a crispy crust without any frying.  Four chicken thighs total.

Juju’s turkey meatballs…I used to be a nonbeliever that I would ever enjoy a meatball made out of turkey.  But this healthy version has all the flavor and tenderness without the calories.  Seasoned with Italian herbs, finely minced onion & garlic, bread crumbs & a touch of milk, then shaped into approximately 16 meatballs.  Baked then transferred to a serving dish with marinara sauce.

Parmesan Orzo Risotto is a creamy twist on traditional Arborio risotto and is a great different pasta dish.  First the orzo is toasted in the pan in olive oil, then cooked in chicken stock until almost done.  It is finished with parmesan and cream, salt and pepper.
