I know, I know, I KNOW! It is that dreadful time of year when we all try, with some truly committing, to those “New Year Resolutions”.  No matter what your resolution is, just make sure that it is attainable.  We are so busy as it is and to add another something to our plate could be more stress than good.  So, this year, remember to keep it simple and find happiness in attaining and reaching your goal.

I will share my New Year Resolution with you ladies, knowing I now have accountability.  My New Year Resolution is to make healthier choices.  Now, that could be from making my life more physically active or just making healthier food choices.  The benefits will be more energy and, of course, I would love to shed just a little of that bad word…Fat. Hehe!  Regardless if I make one healthy choice a day, I am making a step in the right direction.

I hope that each of you  accomplish your New Year’s Resolution and know that I am cheering you on.  I would love to hear what your New Year Resolution is!

You know I wouldn’t leave ya with out giving you a little something!  Below is my favorite, simple and healthy Chicken Pasta Salad to help with those stressful nights of wondering what will I fix for dinner.

Chicken Pasta Salad

What you will need:

1 Box of Spiral Noodles (Garden Blend)

1 Large Can of Chicken or 3 Cooked Chicken Breasts (cut into pieces)

1 1/2 cups Frozen Peas

1 Tbsp. Of Butter or Margarine

Salt & Pepper

How To Make:

Cook pasta as directed on the box.  Drain the pasta.  Add butter or margarine to pasta and mix together. Meanwhile, add the peas to a 1.5 qt saucepan and cook on medium until it whistles; close the whistle and turn the burner off. When the pasta is done, add the cooked peas and chicken.  Add the peas and chicken to the pasta mixture and  mix together.  Add salt and pepper to taste. ta-Dah! Dinner in 15 minutes - how much easier can it get, ladies? It is so simple but light, quick, easy and so yummy !

Enjoy!
