Can ya’ll tell I’ve been thinking a lot about food lately? Post-baby I want to make sure I’m eating healthy, but I also need recipes that are fast and easy to make. This Coconut Ginger Chicken is delicious and super simple to throw together. The best part is there’s no need to make special ginger sauce, I just used Naturally Fresh® dressing!

This looks like something that my boys would like. I’ve never seen that naturally fresh dressing which would be good on lots of things
Fast and easy to make recipes are going to be exactly what you want after the baby is born. I’ve been been making the same couple of recipes since my little man was born just because of how easy they are to make.
That seems easy enough, and pretty tasty, too. I like how the coconut is more of a garnish than a main flavor.
wow it really is simple! I love coconut never tried it with ginger.
This sounds great! I can’t believe you have time to create, cook, and post!
I wouldn’t’ have thought to put ginger with coconut but this looks delicious! Can’t wait to give it a shot.
