Honey Chicken
Chicken breasts bathed in a tangy, citrus honey marinade, then baked. This is a great marinade for chicken breasts. For a more low-fat recipe, try reducing the amount of oil. As far as I can tell, it's just used to 'glue' the marinade to the chicken.
Grilled Peaches and Cream
These grilled peaches are topped with a wonderful honey nut flavored cream cheese spread for an easy grilled dessert. Drizzle a little extra honey after peaches are grilled and they're perfect!
