A spicy kick to a delicious and easy baked chicken recipe. Any mustard works, but we love one available at health food stores that has apple cider vinegar in it.

Cast-Iron Roast Chicken with Caramelized Leeks

Stuffed Shells with Marinara
Nothing feels more decadent than giant shells of pasta filled with creamy mozzarella, Parmesan, and ricotta.
