May 2016 Weeknight Dinner Ideas Part 4

Hope y’all are having a happy, healthy and safe Memorial Day weekend!  Did you grill anything good during one of the first nice weekends of the year?  

Instead of grilling tonight, I am on my way to Montana for a work trip.  This trip comes on the heels of getting home from Nashville around 2:30 Friday morning.  All of this crazy travel means there are fewer quick dinner ideas listed in my post this week.  Fingers crossed no additional crazy travel comes up last minute for next week!  

For the soy-glazed chicken thighs mentioned below, the recipe says to bake them.  After making the recipe per instructions, I would suggest grilling them.  Despite lining the pan with foil we have a blackened cookie sheet on our hands.   Do yourself a favor and spare yourself from the extra mess!

OK, my flight is about to board… 
As always, please let me know if you enjoyed any of the recipes featured below, and if you find my blog useful please share it with your friends!
