Chicken and Sweet Potato Cherry Salad / Giveaway #GoTart

February 18, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 87 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today I am so excited because today I teamed up with Healthy Aperture and the Cherry Marketing Institute for an awesome giveaway and to celebrate one of my favorite little fruits, cherries!  Yah!!!  This is the perfect time to celebrate cherries because it is National Cherry Month!! So let’s get rolling to today’s recipe, which is Chicken and Sweet Potato Cherry Salad!  Yummmmmmy!!!

Chicken and Sweet Potato Cherry Salad #GoTart
My salad is made with roasted sweet potatoes, juicy chicken that was marinated in Tart Cherry Juice dressing, slivered almonds, goat cheese and my favorite part of the salad, dried tart cherries. Oh how I love those little tart cherries. I happened to pop a few in my mouth while putting my dinner together, he he This salad is the perfect balanced meal. It contains protein, carbs, fiber and healthy fats!! It’s great for dinner or even for lunch. I made sure I made extra so I could have it for lunch the next day. This salad is perfect warm or cold!
Chicken and Sweet Potato Cherry Salad #GoTart
I made a delicious slightly tart, savory and a little sweet dressing for my salad. It’s made with tart cherry juice, red wine vinegar, stevia, garlic, mustard and olive oil. I made sure that I made enough dressing to marinate my chicken in it too. Let me tell you the dressing is fantastic, especially on the chicken. My chicken turned out so moist, juicy and tender. I normally love to grill my chicken, but being chilly out, I decided to bake it and baking it was the way to go!! I love when you cut a piece of chicken and the juice just flows out of it. That’s when you know you cooked it right! Oh yah!
Tart Cherry Balsamic Dressing #GoTart
Did you know that dried Tart Cherries are rich in vitamin A and did you know that Montmorency tart cherries contain anthocyanins, a flavonoid that contributes to the ruby-red color and distinguishing taste. I love the taste! They make for a great snack and because they contain phytonutrient compounds inside, which may help prevent disease and keep your body working properly. Now that’s a great reason to eat tart cherries!!!  If you want to check out other cherry recipes, go to Choose Cherries.com  They have some wonderful, unique recipes!  I found quite a few I want to try!

Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • ⅔ cup tart cherry juice
  • 1 tsp. dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp. garlic
  • 2 tbsp. red wine vinegar
  • ¼ tsp. stevia
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme or ½ tsp. dried thyme
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 lbs. chicken, skinless, boneless

  • 1 tsp. olive oil
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 8 cups mixed greens
  • ⅓ cup dried tart cherries
  • ¼ cup slivered almonds, roasted
  • ¼ cup goat cheese
Instructions
  1. Make Cherry Balsamic Vinaigrette:

  3. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with cooking spray, add chicken and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour ¼ cup of dressing over the chicken and let it marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Reserve the remaining dressing for topping on the salad.
  4. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  5. Line a baking sheet with aluminium foil sprayed with cooking spray or you can use parchment paper; set aside.

Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little o Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little outdoor space with our lounge chairs. Truthfully I wanted to get rid of the lounge chairs as they take up so much room and we never lay on the chaises. However, over the winter my husband made new cushions for the them and I didn’t have the heart to get rid of them. He made the cushions for our dog Samantha who passed away this winter. She loved laying on the lounge chairs. The boys don’t like to sit on them, unless you are on them too. 
☀️
I do like the color combination of this space. It’s relaxing and I just love the Gerbera flowers. I wish I could keep the pillows on them, but my little Sully 🐶loves to tear apart pillows. So the pillows are living in my living room. I’ll bring them back outside if we have guests. 
☀️
Have a wonderful day!

Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy the past month or so, and I haven’t really had much to share with you, but this week I am on vacation so hopefully I can get some content to share. 
💙
I am sharing with you one last look of my blues in my living room, as I plan on adding some yellow. I’d like to say with the warmer weather it’s time for Summer decor, but it has been unseasonably cool here. We are still in the 70’s and windy. Great for the plants, but not me. I need some 80’s. This is just wacky weather!
💙
What’s the weather where you live?

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!
