Balsamic Chicken and Veggies

This Balsamic Chicken and Veggies recipe is adapted from one I used to make featuring red-skinned potatoes and bell peppers for crunch. Now we have sweet potato, zucchini, and asparagus instead, making for a much healthier but no less tasty meal! The best part is it all comes together in about 30 minutes and leaves only a blender and baking sheet for cleanup. And while the blueberries are fun, you can omit them if you don’t have any on hand or if they’re out of season where you are. (I know sometimes those blueberry price tags are pretty high, even for the frozen ones!)
