I tried the Chicken Marsala tonight. I loved it and so did my husband! Thanks so much for all the great recipes. I roasted asparagus as a side dish and had a glass of red wine since I'm starting Phase 2. Yummy dinner!
It is scary starting Phase 2 though. It's so hard deciding what to add and when.
Thanks for the recipe review.
