Pinterest Recipes I've Actually Tried: Part 3

By Nesheaholic @nesheaholic

Soy Ginger Chicken - 3.5 Stars
While this was tasty, the marinade didn't really penetrate the chicken beyond the surface, and I let it marinate for a whole day. (If anyone knows and trick to make the marinade absorb better let me know!) Because of the sugar it also stuck on the grill, but it was good. 

Green Bean Fries - 5 stars
These are by no means a substitute for actual french fries, but these were DELICIOUS. The best green beans I've ever tasted. I actually went back for a second helping!

One Pot Penne Pasta - 5 Stars
This was a 100% hit. Tim and Sage both loved it. It cooks in one pot, which mean there is only one pot to wash. Win-win-win. 

Chia Pudding - 1 Star
This just didn't work for me. The texture and taste were a complete miss. Perhaps I'd like it better with less liquid so that it's a thicker pudding, and with more sweetness added in to flavor it. For now, I'll stick to getting my chia seeds in via my smoothies. 

Oven Baked Crispy Chicken - 5 Stars
I used to be afraid of chicken thighs because I didn't know what to do with them. This recipe has completely changed that. Baked crispy chicken thighs are now my go to chicken recipe. The chicken comes out crispy on the top and the bottom, without being fried, using just olive oil. It's amazing. 
What's the last great (or horrible) recipe you tried?
