Jay was here for dinner tonight instead of the usual Sunday since we have plans tomorrow night. We had a long-ish, very wet bike ride this morning followed by a visit with friends in the area, so we got home somewhat late. At 6pm I headed to Trader Joe’s for a few things, and still had dinner ready by 7:30.
I made one change to the chicken recipe – I used sun-dried tomatoes in place of olives since Larry’s not so crazy about olives. They both liked the whole meal. The whole grain pilaf from Trader Joe’s wasn’t bad either and was easy to make. The chicken recipe is also in Fine Cooking’s 2004 Quick & Delicious special issue, and the carrots are also in Fine Cooking’s 2006 Quick & Delicious special issue.
