So many snuggles

Toast-related brunch spread.
Coming soon: 3 yogurt toppers and a killer roasted grapefruit toast.

They’re so sweet when they’re sleeping

Hey look, I left the house alone today!

This is my house right now

What, you didn’t think you were getting a non dog-related POD, did you? 😆
Maybe some day I will once again leave the house – but maybe not this weekend. Staying “grounded” for a bit to make sure these two don’t murder each other or make so much noise security has to break up the fun.
I first came across a version of this chicken on Instagram in relation to a sandwich, and it got the wheels turning.
What you end up with is a pile of tender, shreddable-if-you-look-at-it-crosswise chicken that pairs beautifully with roasted, nutty veggies and a rich sauce.
I can imagine this would also be fantastic as part of a chicken salad with grapes, pecans and extra rosemary. Or dill. Dill might be great here.
I served mine as part of a quinoa/rice bowl with some leftover cauliflower I’d batch roasted a few days before.

4 chicken breasts
1c. red wine vinegar
1c. olive oil
Peel of half a lemon

Combine all the non-bowl ingredients in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring up to a boil, cover, lower the heat & simmer 1 hour or until the chicken is falling apart.
Cool chicken, pull out of the oil & vinegar, and shred. Place in the bowl with the other ingredients.

Combine all

And our new family selfie 😍
