My Roasted Chicken recipe post is overdue. There is so much going on right now in my life that I am not sure or even know where to start. But I know the primary goal for me is to take care of my health by creating simple and quick meals. For many months I have been suffering from lower back pain and have not found any relief yet. So disappointed! But enough about me!

I am so glad that yesterday while browsing the CNN website, I noticed the news about Restaurant Report Card Grades on Antibiotics in Meat Supply. This could not have come at a better time because kids are back in school around the country and creating quick and healthy meals is what every parent wants instead of buying unhealthy meals at fast food places.

Although I’m happy to have shared the CNN featured news on my social media, it is indeed a relief that there is more transparency in the food industry. My sisters and I often talk about fresh produce, meat and poultry and how we wish we lived close to a farm. Where will we find such a place? I have no clue. I guess it is still good to daydream a little. No harm there!

It is very challenging to follow a healthy diet nevertheless create quick meals. I love creating meals I know will be satisfying for the entire family. The meals are portion controlled healthy.

A roasted chicken is not only an easy dish to make, but it is also a dish that gives you the ability to create other dishes if there are leftovers. I can make a roasted chicken for dinner today and leave the chicken breast for a chicken salad or chicken sandwich for the following day. That scenario will probably work for small families and not large families. Next time you want to roast a chicken, think about the many possibilities you will have with leftovers.
