Sesame Chicken and broccoli:
1 large chicken breast (mine was 12 ounces) cut into bite sized cubes
Marinade:
1 tsp. each: lemon juice, teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, worcestershire sauce, honey
.5 Tb each: sugar, sesame seeds
.5 tsp. of garlic powder
1/8 tsp. black pepper, ginger, cinnamon
Coat chicken in 1 Tb flour then toss in baggie to marinade for about 1-2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Place chicken with 10 oz. of broccoli florets on baking sheet. Cook for 6 minutes, turning chicken halfway. Take out and sear in hot pan on high for about 1 minute until chicken and broccoli crisp slightly on the outside.
For the cucumber salad: slice one cucumber thinly and thinly slice one fourth cup of onion. Toss together in sauce made from:
.5 Tb parmesan cheese
1Tb apple cider vinegar
1 Tb milk
2 Tb cream cheese (I used whipped since it was easier, may also use sour cream or yogurt)

generous pinch of garlic powder, dill, and onion powder
for the dessert:
1 cup chunked honeydew
.5 cup blueberries
.5 cup strawberries
1 Tb honey
1/8 tsp. vanilla
2 Tb baileys Irish cream (heavy cream with a bit of orange works great too!)
