We all have those meals...the one's we fix weekly for our family. They're quick, easy, or yummy...or quick, easy, AND yummy and often requested by members of our family. Sometimes, though, we get tired of the same things every week, which is why I'm proposing a "recipe swap" of sorts. If you'd like to contribute to and benefit from "Go-To Grub!", please e-mail me your recipes, with "Go-To Grub" in the message line, as many or as few as you like; you might even have them in your sent box because someone has asked you for them in the past! This could potentially be a really great source of variety for our weekly meal plans, so please join the fun! E-mail them as soon as you have some free time so we can get this up and running.

Feel free to pass this along!

Aloha Chicken with Pineapple Dip

This is a go-to meal in the kitchen of Erin B, author of Defending Vegetables: Not Such an Easy Gig! She says, "Super fast, easy, and nutritious!!!"

1/2 8-ounce can crushed pineapple in juice
4 1/2 t honey
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
salt and pepper to taste

1. Whisk pineapple with its juice and honey in a bowl until combined.
2. Season chicken cubes with salt and pepper and place in a plastic bag covered with 2/3 of the pineapple sauce.
3. Refrigerate for at least an hour.
4. Place chicken on baking pan lined with foil and broil on middle rack for 6-8 minutes per side or until cooked through.
5. For dipping sauce: While the chicken is broiling, put the remaining sauce in a saucepan and cook over medium heat for 1 minute or until thickened.

Makes 2 servings.
