Chicken with Bruschetta Veggies

The weather is warm and farmer's markets are open, so take advantage of seasonal produce with this lovely recipe!

This post is going up a little later than normal due to my current task of trying to retrieve as many files and restore them as I can off of my desktop computer, including all of my recipe pictures for the stuff to come. I may be fervently in my kitchen trying to remake some foods due to some of the pictures being permanently gone. YAY! So I have been concentrating as much as possible on recovering files instead of blogging like I should be doing.

Today's recipe is a great chicken recipe topped with all sorts of veggies with a kick of balsamic vinegar to top it off. I am so happy it's warmed up in Tennessee and look forward to all of the fresh produce the season has to bring.
