    Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken

    On my way to 100 recipes in 100 days. This is recipe 12. This Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken is SO.GOOD.

    Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken

    Really, I try not to use all caps, to avoid that yelling effect, but I couldn’t help myself.  This recipe has been floating around Pinterest for months and I am kicking myself for waiting so long to make it.  If it didn’t take so much “stand time” in the kitchen, I would make it weekly.  This is WAY better than any takeout Sweet And Sour Chicken and my entire family loves it.


    Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken Ingredients
    Know what I mean by “stand time?”  I have two toddlers and they are busy and fun and require that I always have one hand free tend to them.  This chicken is amazing and worth the time, but you will need about 30 minutes to tend to this chicken before putting it in the oven to bake.

      I love sweet and sour chicken. Back in the early eighties when I was like eighteen my co-workers took me out to eat Chinese. Haven’t ever had Chinese I didn’t know what to order so they recommended the sweet and sour chicken. It remains my favorite to this day. I have a recipe that’s similar and just made it last week. It calls for pineapple juice but all I had was canned pineapple, so I used that juice. Then I added in the pineapple towards the end of the baking time. Delicious!

      I made this the other week as well and am IN LOVE with this recipe. I husband could not get enough! I also pinned this recipe months ago and wish I never waited as long as I did to make. I shared on my blog yesterday 🙂

      Would garlic powder work instead of garlic salt? Sounds delish!

    Today I wanted to chat a little bit about how I sh Today I wanted to chat a little bit about how I share my faith with others. It can be hard to figure out where to start, but by sharing your faith with even one person you've already made a difference.

Share your faith with those around you authentically. It's important to show that your life isn't perfect. Talk about the good and the bad and what God has done for you in those times!  Talking about God and His faithfulness each day helps create a natural flow.  Talk about God often through the day in casual settings and just in conversation. 

Pray for those you interact with. Pray for God to place someone in your life who needs Him.

Of course, my greatest way of sharing my faith is with you all. I love that we've created a community here full of joyfulness and rejoicing in God’s perfect ways. I've been able to write about my own experiences (good and bad/hard) on the blog and here on Instagram, in a way where I'm able to encourage and really connect with new friends.

If you ever need any advice I'm always here! Tag someone in the comments you want to pray for today. Or simply leave us your 🙏 to spread a little joy 💕

    This travel schooling adventure has been nothing s This travel schooling adventure has been nothing short of amazing. We have finished out 2 weeks on the road and we have driven over 2,000 miles! We zigzagged across Utah and went through the center of Arizona.

My very favorite scenery so far has been Arches National Park. My goodness…..it is stunning! We went twice to Goblin Valley to play on all of the big red rocks.  

We still have about 5 more days before we get home and plenty more to explore.

We are creating memories that will bond us for life and I am so so thankful for this special time together.
