One That Started Them All

Hello all,

After watching a bunch of Youtube videos we decided to go food shopping to pick up a bunch of food for my boyfriend to try to cook aka a dinner challenge. At the store we had a big list of other groceries and random items to get in the span of an hour because we are young and tried to cram two stops into one joint trip (we succeeded with a lot of rushing). After finishing grocery shopping we move on to our next store to finish the list and by the end of that trip we get out of the store with 30 minutes till closing. Joint trip accomplished..... or so we thought, we forgot to grab ingredients for the challenge. 

Needless to say we went home with no second thoughts.

It is the day of the dinner challenge and we take a span of 5 minutes to pick out ingredients from the snabinet (snack cabinet) and the fridge. The ingredient list is as follows:

• 2 Chicken breasts
• Carrots
• Cucumber
• Spaghetti
• Garlic (I love me some garlic)
• Pancetta
• Shredded cheddar 
• Maple syrup 

My boyfriend quickly added broccoli and onion to that list amongst a bunch of spices.
With this being said we let the home chef get to work.

mmmmmm.. maple carrots, sliced cucumbers in italian dressing, chicken with brown sugar and spices, broccoli with garlic, and finally pasta with alfredo sauce.

I'm a huge fan of garlic, I could not get enough of the broccoli.
Needless to say this was just the beginning of the cooking shenanigans that are to come because this was the first addition to the clean plate club.
