- Bloggers are writing their very own recipe e-books. That is so impressive! A lot of bloggers are either selling these, or offering a small, free one upon subscribing to their email lists.
- Bloggers are participating in, or hosting, panels!! Who knew! So innovative. There are low-carb panels, panels on how to bake with coconut flour, and more! A panel will consist of several bloggers sharing their ideas on whatever the topic is.
- Bloggers are asking questions. A lot of the blogs I like to follow have questions at the end of the blog posts. What a great way to get others involved, and to start a conversation. After all, blogging isn't only for the blogger, it's for the reader too. Love that.
- While many bloggers follow and tweak recipes, and link from this or that website, many bloggers are true bonafide recipe developers, playing around in the kitchen and experimenting to create their recipes. I think this is what I need the most improvement on. That, improving my p.o.v., and just overall creating my blogging presence. I'm glad that there's room and time to grow!
I am proud to say that I was able to whip up a yummy chicken dish the other night on my own. I'd seen a recipe for stuffed chicken breasts weeks ago and wanted to use up some of what I had in the fridge to make a dish similar to it. I haven't made stuffed chicken breasts in a long while, but making them reminded me that they were one of the first dishes I ever made for my dad and brother once I moved to my dad's house after graduating from college. Ah, the good old days. :-)
Pesto Stuffed Chicken Breasts with Spinach
Serves 2
2 medium sized chicken breasts, sliced in half laterally and pounded thin
4 Tbsp pesto (I used Pesto Genovese, Aldi brand, but scratch made pesto would work just as well)
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup red cooking wine (or the real thing if you have it)
1 Tbsp garlic infused olive oil
4 toothpicks
