Almond-Crusted Chicken Tenders
There is nothing better than a crispy, crunchy, juicy chicken tender dipped in your favorite sauce. They’re kid- and adult-friendly, and this version is made special with almonds!

Want a delicious salmon dinner on the table in about 20 minutes? I sure do! Salmon has loads of health benefits, including being supportive of brain and heart health (thank you, omega 3s!), but sometimes it can be intimidating to cook. Do you keep the skin on or take it off? Does it need to…

Have you ever eaten a scrumptious peanut sauce at a restaurant and said to yourself, “I wish I had the recipe so I could make it at home!” Well, my friends, this is that recipe. I use this peanut sauce in so many recipes that my friends make awkward jokes about it, like “you’re going…
