It's Eliz!

I checked off one of my 2012 to-do’s tonight – roasting a chicken!

Rinsed the chicken and stuffed the cavity with lemons.

I had some veggies in the fridge that were looking a little wilty, so I chopped them up, mixed in a bit of olive oil and salt, and put them in the dutch oven. Carrots (some from our garden!), onions, celery, and cherry tomatoes from our garden that I froze last summer.

Chicken on top with more olive oil and salt.

Baked at 350 degrees with the lid on for about an hour; then removed the lid, added a little butter on top for color, and roasted for 15 minutes more.

My plate. Yum.

Hope you had a nice weekend!
