Roast Chicken Quarters with Lemon-Dill Spring Vegetables
I'm always looking for a quick and easy dinner solution. Being an independent momma often leads to being short on time. So over the next few months we are going to start exploring recipes that are simple to prepare and easy to cook. The first one up is from the cook book 200 Best Sheet Pan Meals. I've been looking through the book and I must admit some recipes look a little time consuming and there are various skill levels. But I also found several recipes that are perfect for weeknight meals. ...
