Chicken Breasts With Herb Basting Sauce
I really like this recipe. I read some of the other reviews and tweaked it a little. I stabbed the chicken breast many times, combined the rest of the ingredients and then put it in the fridge of an hour, flipping it once. Instead of basting I simply put a dab of butter and made a basket out of tin foil and put it in a 450 deg oven for 45 minutes. Just great

Fantastic Black Bean Chili
This was the first time I had ever made chili. I used 19 oz of black beans and two large tins of crushed tomatoes.I substituted red wine for red wine vinegar. I didn't use any thyme, but added cumin, red pepper flakes to taste.

Shrimp and Quinoa
This was my first experience with Quinoa. I added 3 Tbs of ginger in addition to the Tbs of raw. didn't taste the lime juice at all so will add more. Replaced the raisins with orange inspired cranberries.
