Fave Chicken Recipes!

Since Sunday is food prep day for most people, I thought I'd share some of my favorite chicken recipes.  My meat sources are usually just turkey and chicken, so making my chicken a different way every week keeps me from getting bored with it. I usually cook my meat for the week ahead of time, unless we run out mid-week, then I'll just cook it up fresh for dinner. Hope you try and like some of them!
