But, I know that for most people making beef bourguignon on a Tuesday isn’t realistic.

Long story short, I want to be here for you to create whatever kind of recipes you need. Today, I chose to share these healthy baked chicken tenders, next week I might upload my favorite no-knead rolls, or in a few days, I might share a recipe for homemade gummy bears. (Spoiler: I am.)
