AeroGarden – Day 1

Jamie Oliver’s Crunchy Garlic Chicken – Pass it on!
Attempt #2 from the Food Revolution, our cookbook of the month. This recipe was super easy…only downside is it takes a little time to get all the pieces together. For making the crust, I was able to use a mini food processor since I only had 3 chicken breast to cover. If you have more, [...]
