Tues:

Wed:

Rosemary roasted chicken with apples and potatoes - used chicken breast instead of thighs. This was better than i thought it would be (i didn't pick the recipe).

NOTE: I don't have a broiler pan so I used a rimmed baking sheet, lovely covered the apple/potatoes with foil and cut slits in the foil. I placed the chicken on top of the foil and cover the chicken with another piece of foil so it wouldn't dry out while baking. I adjusted the cooking time for boneless breasts. This turned as a good alternative to a roasting pan.

Thurs:

Tacos and guacamole

Fri:

Homemade pizza

Sat:

Blueberry pancakes
