Dr Oz would a segment along with Rachael Ray where the lady taught everyone learning to make delicious, healthy, and budget-friendly recipes. One of the dinners was Rachael Ray’s Grilled Fowl Thighs with Peppermint White Beans along with Tomato Onion Salad. A wonderful tip from this menu is that you can stretch your protein in a food by using beans, which can be inexpensive compared to hen. Plus, by using chicken thighs, you will save a large amount of money over hen breasts. However, I know only like to consume chicken breasts, therefore i would make that replacement in my kitchen.
