THIS CHICKEN RECIPE WILL BLOW YOUR MIND!
I have such a hard time pleasing everyone in my house.
Sometimes the demands are endless at meals and it’s exhausting.
I’m sure you can relate…”Mom I need ketchup on the side, or I don’t like pepper on my food, and I can’t forget the ultimate….I don’t like the green plate!”
So one sure thing I do at every meal is make at least one item that I know everyone will eat.
And this Hawaiian Chicken actually pleases the entire crew, picky eaters and all!
