Last week I found a couple of recipes that I really wanted to make. One I found in a cookbook called “the naked cook book” by Tess Ward, and the other from Root Cellar’s weekly email. A little recipe inspiration sure helped!
Did you know that The Root Cellar sends their flyers by email, adds their best sale items #dirtcheapthisweek, and then links recipes that use their sale items? Brilliant right?!
So, potatoes were on sale and the recipe was Sheet Pan Greek Garlic Chicken + Potatoes from Half Baked Harvest.
I made it and YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM its my new fav. Seriously. It is.
Here are my pics – and it made a great leftover lunch box for two of us!
As you can see, cabbage was also on sale. I chose the Hainan Chicken recipe from Tess Ward’s book. Funny story though… I forgot to buy it at the Rootcellar and my partner got some on the way home from work. It was $10 and he chose purple… lol. So we had purple rice, purple chicken broth and well…. purple everything. We embraced it – it’s Halloween almost and it was pretty! It was delicious and the girls liked it too. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture, but I’ll post the recipe with photo.
To summarize, recipe inspriation is magic. I loved it. I was excited all day to make the Greek Chicken sheet pan recipe. And… pro tip – if you follow the Root Cellar link, you can subscribe to their email newsletter at the top of the page – and they have student discounts (-10%) on Wednesdays! (I recommend it.)
I sound like a Root Cellar advertisement – this is not a sponsored link! Fun fact though – my aunt says I am distantly related to the owners. I’ve never met them – but they must be great! I love that place!
I hope the extra lunchbox is for me
