I’m so glad you enjoyed it! That is good to know about the shelled nuts. I usually make my kids help me shell the pistachios the day before!

By the way, Costco sells bags of shelled pistachio nuts at a ridiculously reasonable price.

Thank you! I made the recipe last night for two girlfriends. It was delicious and they both loved it. When I told them it was a South Beach Diet recipe they were amazed! It was a big bonus to have a tasty dinner and have it be healthy! I sprinkled the browned onions on top and it added a nice flavor. I will definitely make this again regardless of whether I am watching my weight or not!

Oops! Sorry I left that part out. We usually serve them on top of the chicken. Enjoy!

Can you please tell me what to do with the browned onions? Are they to be blended with the dressing or sprinkled on the chicken? This was never explained in the recipe. Thanks much!

Thank you so much for making your worksheets available. I have been looking online for “good” writing paper for my 4 year old to practice but have been unable to find anything acceptable until now. The ABC writing paper is cool, too. Thanks, again.

Thanks for your comment and kudos, Mark. I’m not a highly technical person so I’m sure there are many ways to embed Google! Glad you at least found this post helpful! Yeah, I don’t even use those wind up things. I usually just tightly fold up any excess cord and secure it with a twist tie!

Thanks for sharing this cool trick. Bumped into your site while searching for a good way to embed Google calendar (which I solved in a very different way, btw). Your site looks well organized, clear, easy on the eyes, and pleasantly written. And: there are good tips.
Do you also have a trick for those wind-up things for cords, that always get stuck? They have a high-score on the irritation scale, too.

Cheers!

@Kerry: Sorry for the late reply. I’ve been on vacation. You may have already figured it out by now! But I will give it a go. Sounds like maybe something was missing in the link. Those links are crazy long so I would go back and make sure you have selected all from the code. It should start and end with iframe tags () with a whole lot of seemingly gibberish stuff in the middle! You can check out my code on this post to see what it looks like for my particular calendar. Maybe that will help.
