Quick and Healthy Dinner for One
Hubby had to work late last night so I was on my own for dinner. We didn’t do our weekly meal planning and grocery shopping, so I had to throw some stuff together. I got inspiration from a recipe from Allrecipes.com. This was a great meal that literally took 5 minutes to make and kept me full all night. And it was really healthy!!
Goat Cheese / Pesto / SDT open face sandwich
2 pieces whole grain bread
1 oz Goat Cheese
~2 Tbsp pesto
Sun dried tomatoes
Preheat oven to 350. While oven is heating, assemble sandwiches.
Put a sheet of foil on a cookie sheet. Place bread on foil and spread cheese on bread. Spoon on pesto (as much or little as you like). Top with sun dried tomatoes.
Bake for 5 minutes until heated.
Quick steamed Squash
1 summer squash – cubed
1 tsp olive oil
seasoning of your choice – I used Mrs Dash chicken grilling seasoning
Put everything in a microwave bowl and heat for 60 seconds. Stir and heat 60 more seconds.

I have that cookbook! I have been very pleased with the recipes that I’ve made from there. This one sounds great.
Love artichokes, this sounds great.

I’m sure I would love this, the flavors all sound wonderful together 🙂
This sounds delicious! I love the idea of picking a new recipe once a week. I know my other and half and I try to do the same too. It’s all to easy to eat the same food over and over again.
I love mushrooms and artichokes – looks like such a perfect way to enjoy chicken! I try to make one new recipe every week too.
Your blog is amazing, You food looks divine and your photography is outstanding!!!
