So, Let Me Tell You About This Pretzel Chicken Okay, first – I have to confess: I once burnt the very first batch of pretzel chicken I ever tried to make because I was glued to an old episode of Bake Off (I get distracted by the drama of soggy bottoms). But, ever since then,…

Oh, you’re in for a treat with this one. Creamy Chicken Pesto Pasta with Sundried Tomatoes reminds me of the first meal I made entirely from scratch for my sister—she lovingly called it my “green spaghetti incident”.
