Crispy Grilled Boneless Chicken Thighs
These crispy chicken thighs are by far one of my favourite recipes. They are quick and easy to make and have so much flavour.
They are also budget-friendly if you debone your own chicken thighs, which if you want boneless chicken with the skin left on you will pretty much have to learn to do this yourself.
You can save even more if you buy when chicken is on sale, debone and then freeze to pull out and grill as needed.
They make great sandwiches or wraps and are amazing sliced to use in a salad or in a pasta dish.
Roasted Pan Veggies
A side of sweet roasted vegetables is a great addition to any meal. This is a quick and easy recipe that can cook while you prepare the rest of your dinner.
We have used red and yellow peppers as well as green zucchini, but feel free to use any colour of pepper or yellow zucchini.
These roasted veggies are also great for wraps and sandwiches, so make extra to use the next day.
How to Debone a Chicken Thigh
Deboned chicken thighs are a really useful and versatile protein. Buying bone-in skin-on chicken thighs and deboning your own is the budget-friendly choice.
Look for special offers in your grocery store and you can then decide to use it with the bone-on skin-on as you bought it, or you can debone the chicken and choose to leave the skin on or off depending on your needs.
Veggie Loaded Meat Sauce
This meat sauce recipe is loaded with vegetables your kids will never know are there – in this recipe we have used zucchini, carrots, and mushrooms Grating both the carrots and zucchini means that they will blend into the sauce making it very moist and rich in flavour.This recipe makes a great lunch with any leftovers and also freezes really well for a quick homemade dinner for those busy weeknights.You can turn this into an easy dinner with pasta, garlic bread, or as a topping on a baked potato.
Chicken and Roasted Vegetable Wraps

We have included the recipe and instructions to make them from scratch – be sure to double up so you can have them the next day too!
Fresh Tomato Bruschetta
This is a quick and easy way to make Bruschetta with all the bold flavours but without the need to peel the tomatoes, which can be a little bit of a messy process.
