Cherry Chicken Salad by Cindy’s Recipes and Writings

July 1, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 4 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today I am very excited to have Cindy from Cindy’s Recipes and Writings fill in for me today!  I have been a fan of Cindy’s blog for a long time now and I just simply love her recipes.  I really think you will love Cindy just as much as I do!  Plus today’s recipe is one that you won’t want to miss!  I can tell you I will be making this for my lunches this week!  Let’s give Cindy a warm Peanut Butter and Peppers welcome!!  Take it from here Cindy….

Hi, I’m Cindy from Cindy’s Recipes and Writings . I’m so excited to be guest posting for Jennifer today here at Peanut Butter and Peppers !

Jennifer and I share a love for food and gardening and counting calories comes second to eating in moderation. She is an amazing cook! I love her site and stop by often for recipes and tips on healthy eating.  My blog is about all things food from farm to table. I feel it is very important to know where your food originated and what goes into what you serve your family. Fresh, local organic produce always tops my list. Most recipes are 30 minutes or less.
In keeping aligned with healthy eating, I chose to share a salad with you today. This Cherry Chicken Salad is packed with fresh, in season dark sweet cherries in the salad and in the dressing!

Sweet cherries are packed with vitamin C and fiber and are a good source of Vitamins A, K and iron. I push cherry halves through a mesh strainer to juice. Add the leftover pieces to your salad or another recipe or eat as a snack!  * Here’s a tip for getting those cherry stains off your fingers. Dip your fingers in white vinegar lightly rub in then while still wet, dip your fingers into baking soda and rub. The paste does the work. Repeat if necessary. Usually once and done!

Your salad looks incredible!  I love cherries and the dressing, oh my gosh!  I think it would be amazing on so many different recipes!!    Plus the tip on getting the cherry stains off your fingers is genius!  I wish I knew that before I pitted all of my cherries and ummm, hand red fingers.  🙂

Happy December 1st! Can you believe it’s only 25 Happy December 1st! Can you believe it’s only 25 days until Christmas? I’m not ready yet!! But I did get my Christmas tablescape ready! 
🎄
I was gifted this beautiful table cloth by @cottonprintclub. It’s 100% cotton, comes in several sizes and colors, doesn’t bleed or shrink when washed. I love the shade of green and it is so beautiful that you can use it all year. 
🎄
I went with a simple tablescape to show off my beautiful plates that I received from @backcountrymercantile. All I added to my table was some garland, candlesticks and of course twinkling lights. Swipe the photo to see my table in the evening. 
🎄
Do you have a food dish that you like to make during the holidays?

Happy Wednesday friends! I wanted to share how I s Happy Wednesday friends! I wanted to share how I styled my media table. I’ve been looking at the table for a few days and I couldn’t figure out what it was missing, then I remember that I was gifted some beautiful potpourri from @myclaireburke. 
🦌
I ran and grabbed my dough bowl and filled it with Claire Burke Christmas Memories Potpourri that filled the room with the scent of cinnamon, cloves and Christmas trees. It’s perfect! The potpourri has gold and red accents in it. There are large and baby pinecones with white snow on them, and pinecones dipped in gold. This is the perfect potpourri for the season.
🦌
Claire Burke is currently running a Cyber 30% off sale. No code required. Great time to stock up on Christmas gifts and stocking stuffers. The link is in my bio.

I also wanted to share my gorgeous art work from my friends @12timbers. It’s the perfect piece of art that will work all season long. 12 Timbers is having 20% off everything cyber sale. Code: CYBERMONDAY23

Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and oh my gosh, I love it!! Pink is so fun! I thought I would share with you how I styled my kitchen sink area.
💗
The inspiration for this space came from the stunning pieces that I was gifted from my friend Britni @arcadian.collective. I love her shop! Such timeless, elegant pieces that will last a lifetime.
💗
I received from Arcadian Collective the solid marble Seraphine Butter Bell, Vintage European solid brass Salt & Pepper Mill, Carrara Cielo Marble Stone Serveware and the cutest pink little Christmas candle. Check out my Arcadian Collective highlight for more details on each product. They would make a great holiday gift!
💗
Hope you have a wonderful day! I’ll be working on the living room today.

Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my a Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my annual snow jar to place on my shelf in the kitchen. You get a tiny sneak peak of my shelves at the end of the reel. The snow jars are so easy to do and you probably have most of the items on hand. 
💗
For the snow, I used blanket snow. You could also use, sugar or Epsom salt. I like the blanket snow because it’s not messy and it hides the fairy lights battery pack.
💗
The houses are ornaments that I bought at Target. I thought they were Perfect for my pink kitchen. Of course you can use whatever you have on hand. It doesn’t have to be a house and tree.
💗
If you buy fairy lights, make sure they have a timer on them. Trust me that will make life easier. If you don’t like fairy lights, you can use a faux candle. 
Ohhh and have a stack of batteries. I go through more batteries in the month of December then I do the rest of the year!
💗
Items used:
Apothecary jar
Fairy lights with timer
Pink house ornament
Bottlebrush tree
Pink ribbon 

Everything, but the pink ribbon was bought at Target. 
💗
Have fun creating! If you make one, tag me so I can share!!

Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last years Christmas. I plan on doing green again in the living room. I just think it looks classic, plus I have all the decor already. So no need to buy more.
🎄
But I still do plan on doing pink in my kitchen. I figured I could use some pink everyday pieces that I already have and add pops of pink ornaments and pink little Christmas trees. I plan doing some shopping this week to see what I can find in pink. I’m so excited!! 
🎄
Have a fantastic Monday!

Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. My husband was sick with the flu, then he passed it on to me. My dog even had an upper respiratory infection. Ugh! It was a rough 2 weeks. Then on Friday I had surgery to remove skin cancer on my chest. I’m sore and I can’t lift or exercise. Anyway, that’s why I have not been on.
🦇
I wanted to give you one last look at my Halloween kitchen before I change it out. Not sure if I’m going to add some Fall or Christmas next. Did you know Christmas is in 63 days? 😳
🦇
So I have been thinking about Christmas colors. The past 2 years I have done green and I love it, however I have always wanted to do a pink Christmas. Just not sure if I can pull it off? I don’t know if I want to go crazy and buy a bunch of pink? What color are you doing this year?
🦇
Have a great day!!
