    main ingredients used in this recipe

    • chicken
    • mozzarella
    • tomato
    • balsamic
    • potato

    frequently asked questions

    how do you know if the chicken is done?

    the chicken was fully cooked in the 30 minutes. however, to check you can use a thermometer or cut it open to make sure it is cooked all the way through.

    can i use another kind of potato in this recipe?

    you can use any type of potato that you like! i love to use red potatoes when roasting with thyme but even sweet potatoes would be delicious!

    can i store leftovers? if so, what's the best way?

    yes! store in a sealed container for up to 5 days.

i used their sweet italian sausage to make this tasty meal. i ground the sausages with some sautéed onions and peppers and no additional seasoning needed!

add the sausage mixture on your favorite corn tortillas and top it all off with some lettuce and cheese for the perfect bite!

    wellness wednesday looks a little different these wellness wednesday looks a little different these days ✨
 
as someone who has been obsessed with tracking my steps and nutrition for years now… i have turned a corner onto a new street of wellness. while I acknowledge how important physical activity and nutrition is, there are other important factors that contribute to a healthy lifestyle 🏃🏻‍♀️
 
two factors are hydration and stress levels. with the help of my @healbe GoBe3 smart band I have been able to make that the forefront of my health journey and i couldn’t be happier.

so for me, that’s having a relaxing tea and doing my daily yoga ☺️
 
when you let go of the calories and step count, you actually begin to LIVE. and that is so important. while @healbe GoBe3 has the ability to track your steps and nutrition, there is so much more to this smart band. 

my hope is for this to be your sign to make your stress levels and hydration a priority in your journey!
 
@healbe is amazing because it lets  you know when need to drink some h20 and when it’s time to take a moment to relax 😌 
 
you can use my code FEASTY10 to get your own and start your own wellness journey :)

    happy fry-day!!! 🍟 i am celebrating with these happy fry-day!!! 🍟 i am celebrating with these seasoned baked potato wedges 🥔

i love a good fried or cheesy potato just as much as the next person. but sometimes i want something a little bit healthier or maybe spice it up!

these oven-roasted potato wedges are just what i needed to satisfy my potato cravings (yes i have those) but also to stay on my health track to reach my goals!

using simple ingredients, this recipe is easy to make and good for you! whether you want to make this recipe as a healthy snack or as a side dish to a meal, that is totally up to you. i will link the recipe below and in my bio! ⬇️
