1. Roast Chicken with Roasted Vegetables: Roasting a chicken is not only delicious, it’s really quite easy. Coat a whole chicken with your favorite rub and place in a roasting pan. Place roughly chopped potatoes, carrots and onions around the chicken. Roast covered for about an hour and a half or until the chicken reaches and internal temperature of 165 F. Don’t forget to baste every half or so and you can remove the cover in the last half hour to help the skin brown.
2. Beef Chili: A traditional comfort food, chili is pretty easy to make. Just brown some ground beef. Then sauté onion and other finely chopped vegetables of your choosing. Add tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes and tomato paste. Season with chili powder, basil, oregano, salt and pepper.
3. Baked Pork Chops: Breaded and lightly pan fried pork chops are then baked and topped with cream of mushroom soup and baked until fully cooked and heated through.
4. Fish Sticks: In a hurry, break out the fish sticks? Serve with fries or salad and don’t forget the tartar sauce.
5. Black Beans and Rice: You can make this dish all in one pot. Just make sure you pre-soak your beans if you’re using dried or simply use fully-drained canned black beans. Put them in the pot with your rice and cooking as usual. For extra flavor, use a vegetable broth instead of water for cooking.
