Easy and yummy dinner


I have recently started making the easiest but yummiest dinners chock full of veggies.

Mix together McCormick Gourmet Herbes de Provence Roasted Chicken and Potatoes seasoning mix (found by other seasoning packets like taco seasoning, fajitas seasoning, etc.) with 1/4 cup white wine (the alcohol cooks out), and 2 Tbsp. olive oil. Then mix together cut up uncooked chicken, and whatever cut up veggies you want (potatoes, onions, carrots are what I used this time...but red/green/orange peppers would be great, squash, turnips, zucchini, broccoli could also be added). Pour the seasoning mixture over the chicken and veggies and coat well. Then place in a 9x 13 pan and bake at 425 for 45 minutes, turning after 30 minutes. (The recipe is right on the back of the seasoning packet. Yum!)

I love this because the seasoning packet is just made of dried herbs...no extra stuff...no MSG or other additives and it's easy and delicious and is a great way to get the family to eat veggies.

I also like the (not quite as healthy...some additives... but still delicious) Knorr roasters that come with a seasoning packet and a bag to roast the chicken and veggies. And since everything cooks inside a bag in a 9 x 13 pan, there is almost no mess to clean up.

Just one more way I'm getting more veggies into our diet.
