This stewed chicken and tomato recipe is a light, juicy, flavorful dish. Being a mom of a 7-month-old child, I've learned to take a lot of shortcuts and still be able to cook quality food. This is quick, easy, and tasty. If you absolutely must use fresh veggies, that's ok, but frozen veggies, in my opinion, work a little bit better. Serve with rice, if desired. To kick it up a bit, add chopped green peppers in with the tomatoes.

While chicken is cooking, place frozen mixed vegetables and water in a pot. Scoop about 3/4 cup liquid from the skillet, and mix into the pot.

Pizza Chicken
Plain breaded chicken is so boring. Spice it up with a little touch of pizza.
Southern Deviled Eggs
A good combo of my mother's and my own deviled eggs over the years. I enjoy my deviled egg somewhat sweet but the condensed milk also gives the deviled egg mixture an unforgettable consistency with a nice shine!
Papaya Boats
Papayas stuffed with yogurt, raisins, strawberries, and walnuts are topped with honey. Choose ripe papayas with reddish-brown skin that is soft to the touch; avoid green papayas, as they are not yet ripe. Organic ingredients taste best!
