We got four servings of out it, each with less than 400 calories, about 9 or 10 grams of fat, approximately 8 grams fiber and pretty low sodium (less than 700 mg). All in all, I'd say a success for something I just threw together on a weeknight. :)

Chicken Parm with Roasted Veggies
A couple weeks ago, on a Monday, it was one of our "we thawed out chicken and had no idea what to do with it, plus have random stuff to use up" nights. I think it turned out pretty well. Here's what we ended up with:
There's no real recipe here. First I cut up a bunch of veggies....4 large carrots, one large red potato, about half a red onion, and maybe 16 brussel sprouts....added a handful of garlic cloves, tossed it all in a bit of oil and spices (savory, Tastefully Simple Seasoned Salt, thyme, oregano) and put in the oven for about an hour. When it was about halfway done, I started on the chicken....I seared off 4 boneless chicken breasts in a saute pan with salt and pepper (no flour or breading - who needs it, really?), topped each one with some leftover homemade meat sauce, about 2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese, and some Italian-ish spices (oregano, etc). That went into the oven next to the veggies (separate baking dish, of course) and it all finished off at about the same time. The house smelled great.
