Hey, Y’all!

I'm Ashley and I believe life starts at the table. Since I was a little girl, my favorite place to be is at the kitchen table -- surrounded by the people I adore, eating delicious food, and listening to family stories. Let's create life around the table!

let’s connect

Alright, alright, alright! You’ve got your chic

Alright, alright, alright!

You’ve got your chicken in the fridge, ready to be used…

But, you want a HOT meal.

I’ve got you covered, my friend!

Take the components of Quiche Lorraine, but use them with your chicken…! I know, crazy, right?! 😱

Quiche Lorraine Components:

🧅 Caramelized Onions
🧀 Gruyere Cheese
🥓 Bacon

✅ Add these three ingredients to a pile of chicken on a sheet pan.

✅ Add to a COLD oven, then set it to 350˚.

✅ Let this cook for 15-20 minutes, or until melted and warmed through.

And if you’re feeling REALLY good about your life, you put this whole shebang between two slices of ciabatta bread…grill until melty, browned, and beautiful… and wham bam thank you ma’am! 🎉

The nutty cheese, with the sweet caramelized onions, and the salty bacon are the perfect combination for a *good meal* worth eating off of a real plate, with a fork and knife, seated! 🪑

What is your ‘sit down worthy’ meal?!

Cobb Salad with Grilled Chicken We’ll start off

Cobb Salad with Grilled Chicken

We’ll start off super super easy with this assemble lunchtime idea to use up your Meal Prep Chicken!

Gather these ingredients, and let’s build a salad! 🥗

🥬 Lettuce
🥕 Shredded Carrots
🥚 Boiled Eggs
🥒 Cucumbers
🍗 Grilled Chicken
🧅 French Onions

Whatever vegetables you have in your fridge, chop them up, and line them up on top of your bed of lettuce.

I love using Homemade Ranch Dressing on top of my Cobb Salad—mainly because I have a real love affair with Ranch, but also because it makes any salad less salad-y.

🥗🥗🥗🥗🥗

Now, tell me friend, what do you like on your Cobb Salad??

Let’s talk Meal Prep… I’m not the biggest f

Let’s talk Meal Prep…

I’m not the biggest fan of those words… 😬

I love cooking, and look forward to making a meal at the end of a busy day!

However, lunchtime, that’s where meal prep comes in handy!

This recipe is for baking chicken cutlets in the oven, in four different marinades—which helps you create new meals for lunch, without having the same thing over and over. 😱

((That’s what really grinds my gears about meal prep… I don’t enjoy leftovers, or eating the same thing over and over!))

Creating marinades for your chicken is a great way to use up the end of a jar/bottle of whatever you have on hand!

🍯 Got a little mustard left? Mix it with some mayo + honey and you’ve got a great Honey Mustard Marinade.

🌶 Have those little soy sauce packets sitting in your drawer?? Mix it with chili garlic paste for a fiery chicken marinade!

🍗 The copious amounts of Chick-FIl-A sauce packets that you had to have… Mix them together and pour over your chicken.

🧂 A sprinkle of your favorite spices mixed with olive oil is a great marinade starting point!

Bake your marinaded chicken cutlets at 425˚ for about 20 minutes, depending on the thickness.

Allow the chicken to cool, slice it up, and place it in storage containers. 🎉

This week I’ll be sharing all the great ways you can use this meal prep chicken!

Now, get marinading—you’ve got time today to make this recipe and set yourself up for Lunchtime Meal Prep success!

🤹‍♀️ It’s hard juggling working, cooking, and life together — there is no getting around it.

🏎 Fast track to #flavortown with this cheeky time-saving Meal Prep Ranch Grilled Chicken Recipe!

When you have a container of this chicken in your fridge, ready to go, here are some dinner ideas for during the week:

🥗 Top any salad
🌮 Slice up for Chicken Tacos
🍝 Mix with Pasta and Veggies for a Pasta Primavera
🥪 Make Monterey Chicken Sandwiches (it’s got BACON!)

💳 Buy yourself precious time and let your grill do the work, freeing up the headspace you crave.

We’re all in a very odd, very busy season of life.

By 🕕 o’clock the bandwidth to handle the thought process of “what’s for dinner?” is low.

Let’s keep working on managing our time well, by taking one decision out of the mix—DINNER.

Do you need a #lowcarb One Skillet Wonder?!

This is a recipe without being a recipe…

🍕 Keto Italian Pizza Zucchini Bake

You take diced zucchini and onions and sauté them in a hot cast-iron skillet until tender.

Add some diced Meal Prep Chicken, red sauce from @raoshomemade and top it all like you would your favorite pizza!

For me, that means smoked mozzarella cheese and pepperonis!

But, you could add whatever you and your people want…

It’s everything your dinner needs, in one skillet, meaning less clean up for you!

Just what you need on a busy Wednesday evening when you’re rushed off your feet. 💥

Hey, y’all! Happy Monday!

🙋🏼‍♀️ Hi! I’m Ashley - the Sweetpea behind Sweetpea Lifestyle.

I’m the hostess with the mostest who is ringing in the “new southern belle.”

I’m the fairy godmother 💃🏼 of maximizing your time and creating unforgettable memories around your table.

📝 We edit out the mess of the overcomplicated dinner party, creating a sense of freedom in yourself to gather people around the table, anchored by good food.

You’ll quickly learn that easy and effortless are a thing you CAN have when entertaining at home. ((This isn’t your grandmother’s 1950s bridge club luncheon.))

I’m a firm believer that the kitchen and the table are the true heart of the home, and life and community are cultivated there.

Sharing a meal together is how we can love people well.

Oh, how I wish I was bringing this cheese plate out to you on the big deck, with people gathered around it!
