This week we've chosen to highlight the hearty, humble lentil, which can be transformed into a legume bowl, a salad topper, or protein packed side dish. Happy cooking!

We love a good spin on a classic pizza! This one takes the pepperoni and cheese and adds it to the inside of a juicy chicken breast. Top it with a bit of pizza sauce, bake it in the oven and Friday's dinner is on the table.
