Weekend Cooking- Cooking Light Magazine


This post is part of Beth Fish Reads' Weekend Cooking.  If you have anything related to food, cookbook reviews, novel or non-fiction book reviews, recipes, movie reviews, etc., head over to Beth Fish Reads and add your post. Or, if you want to read food related posts, head over to read what some interesting people have to say about food.


Years ago, we had a subscription to Cooking Light magazine. I found so many great recipes there that I used many times (including one of my all-time favorites, a caramel cake that was so delicious!). When we moved to New York, I gave up the subscription.

I got an email with a great deal on Cooking Light, so I ordered it and the first issue arrived last week. The cover featured this beautiful looking Chicken with Mushrooms and Onions photo and I knew I had to make this one right away.

It's a perfect weeknight dish, one that you can have on the table in thirty minutes. I added a box of Trader Joe's Rice with Orzo and a salad and we had a light, tasty dinner. I pinned to my The Lighter Side Pinterest board because this is one recipe I will use again and again.

The link to this recipe on Cooking Light's website is here.
I also like that this recipe is part of Michelle Obama's Let's Move initiative, encouraging people to move more, drink more water and eat healthier.

Some other recipes in this issue that I want to try are:
Cheesy BBQ Chicken Pizzas- link is here
Cherry Almond Ricotta Drop Scones- link is here
Mini Philly Cheeseburgers- link is here

Now that we live in a smaller space, I will try to be diligent about going through my cooking magazines and tearing out the recipes that I have tried and liked and then filing them right away.

Do you have any cooking magazines that you go to time and again? Let me know in Comments.
