Eating healthy can be kind of a drag sometimes, but it doesn’t have to be! For years people have been talking about the Mediterranean diet, which mostly consists of lean meats and lots of veggies, which, lucky for you, can be totally delicious when done right. Here, we made a nutritious, lip smackingly-good skillet dinner that everyone loved and that we can’t wait to make again! With chicken, tomatoes, artichokes, mushrooms, spinach, olives, and onions, this dish has everything you could want, plus, anything you or your family doesn’t like, you can swap out! It’s perfect for dinner and we know we’ll be making it again soon….
