This Parmesan-crusted crispy chicken dinner with creamy lemon pasta and zucchini turned out way better than I anticipated. Why? Because, truthfully, I’m not a big chicken breast fan. There.

And since I’m weak and don’t like dealing with this, I give into Owen’s demands and make a lot of starchy dishes. Owen also loves cheese. Potatoes + Cheese = Gratin = Happy Owen. I… Continue Reading
