roasted chicken and vegetables paleo primal recipe Roasted Chicken

If you are as busy as I am, a meal that requires little attention and only needs one pan to cook makes life a little simpler. This recipe is also a delicious way to introduce Brussels Sprouts (aka Baby Cabbages in our house) to your family if they haven’t had them before.

Oh,  yeah, and it is really simple to make (and did I mention that it only uses one dish!!)

    This was fabulous. The little one even went for it and had plenty left when the oldest pulled in from the weekend at the shore.  Thanks!

    My favorite one-pot meal: 1/2 head green cabbage chopped in bite sized pieces, sauteed in palm oil for about 5 min. with 1/2 chopped onion and 1 garlic clove. Add about 3 cups chopped collard greens, 1 cut up zucchini (less-than-bite-size pieces) and cook a few more minutes. Then add one 28 oz can of MuirGlen diced tomatoes and maybe a little water if too dry. Simmer about 20 min or so. Done. I make it in a big pot, and this lasts me (one person) all week, eating it for one meal once a day. I leave out the zucchini if I don’t have one or substitute kale, chard or other green…whatever I have on hand…if I don’t have the collard greens. If you can’t do tomatoes (like me) substitute 5-6 cups filtered water.
