Whether you’re working, still in college, or a stay-at-home parent, when it comes to cooking, we’re all after the same thing: quick, easy, tasty, healthy and inexpensive recipes! It’s not easy to find recipes that meet all of our needs but when we do, it would be cruel not to share them with the world. Enter: French Onion chicken, my new gold mine of quick and easy dinners that delivers on flavor, preparation and low cost.
See the recipe after the jump!

I’m a big fan of one-pot meals. Partially because it cuts down on the dishes, partially for the simplicity, but also because I really like the idea of all the flavors from all the ingredients melding together in one big pot of yummy-ness. And that’s totally what this recipe is.

Whenever I shop at Whole Foods, my brother tells me organic farming is a scam. He contends that any farmer and their mother can call a plot of land “organic,” meanwhile the other 98% of non-organic crops growing in the same field get sprayed with pesticide, which often drifts towards the organic section. It’s a legitimate point and, like anything that becomes trendy in pop culture, “going green” requires more scrutiny and responsibility than just buying a reusable shopping bag. And as much as it pains me to say this, my brother has a point here. Everyone jumped on the organic bandwagon, but most people don’t care enough to understand what this really means. I don’t want to get into a lesson in organics 101 (you can read that here), but I do think it’s important to know about.Realistically, I know that most people will not sit down and research organic farming before going grocery shopping, and part of me thinks that’s ok too. Support of fresh, locally grown ingredients cultivated without chemicals and other pesticides is always a good thing. Besides, Whole Foods is such a satisfying place to shop and their cheese section makes me happy.
