Had a great workout at the gym today. I still havent gotten used to the idea that someone can find me "inspirational" so I guess I better bet my butt moving so I can live up to my own hype :)
It's amazing to me how strong I am getting. I still long to be able to run again, but those pesky shin splints have a way of making you think they are ok, and then killing me again. Another month and maybe I will give it a shot.
This post is about last night's meal. I can not believe I have never blogged about it before. I make this a lot in the spring when asparagus is in season. I have been making it so long, it is one of the only recipes I know off the top of my head. You may wonder about the name......I had to call is something and Chicken, Asparagus, Red Pepper, Tomato Skillet sounded too long. When I make it its so quick, easy and delicious it makes me happy and you cook it all in one skillet. Ta-dah! Happy Chicken Skillet was born! Now go run out and get what you need to make it, its so Delicious!
