Maple Pecan Blondies

Here’s a blondie recipe that I have made many times!  Mine are never as gooey as Gemma’s and that’s probably because I over-bake them. I should keep a better eye on them next time.

This was so easy and REALLY juicy. You can make this recipe with any seasoning that you like.


Steamed Chicken Breast

Ingredients
  • 1 chicken breast half
  • salt

  3. Place lemon slices all around the bottom of the steamer basket. Place chicken pieces on top. Put the lid on the pot and steam for about 15 minutes or just until chicken is cooked through. Let it rest for 5 minutes or so before serving.
  4. Serve with rice and/or veggies.
