Baked Caprese Chicken and Potatoes
We are just smack in the midst of chaos here in October, aren’t we? If you have school-aged kids like we do, you’re dealing with the usual: school, homework, lunches, bedtimes and extracurricular activities. Then we throw in Thanksgiving, Christmas, holiday prep and planning and our own lives and responsibilities (somehow those often get left until last around here), and it feels like we’re constantly on the go. It’s easy dinner ideas like this baked Chicken Caprese with Creamer potatoes from The Little Potato Company that saves us, over and over again.

Reasons to love this Caprese Chicken and Potatoes:
it’s easy and elegant — which means that you can make it an easy weeknight dinner but you can also serve it up to dinner guests over the weekend. The prep is minimal — because we’re using boneless, skinless chicken breasts and Little potatoes (I used the Terrific Trio variety, but any will work!), there’s not really any prep work — no peeling and no washing! — other than halving the potatoes to even up the cook time. Within 5 minutes your dinner is in the oven and your hands are free! Everything bakes in one casserole dish — less prep and less clean up! It’s loaded with flavor — naturally buttery Creamer potatoes, sweet cherry tomatoes, rich, tangy balsamic, creamy Mozzarella and fresh basil? A total match made in heaven. It’s pretty healthy — lean chicken breasts, Little potatoes (which are loaded with potassium and fibre), simple seasonings, juicy tomatoes, and a healthy dose of mozza (hey – our bodies need fat, too!) make this one a winner
