Easy Italian Chicken and Vegetables

Everyone has those days where we don't feel like cooking.  This recipe is for one of those days.  I normally use this recipe when I don't feel like cooking, but it tastes like you put much more effort into it.  I like this recipe because it is versatile and very easy to adjust to your own or your family's taste.  My favorite combination is chicken, potatoes, onions and green beans. 

You start with any meat that you like: chicken breast, pork chops, turkey breasts, meat balls, small steaks, fish (I don't eat fish, so I have no idea which kind).  Then you add your favorite vegetables.  Using frozen, pre chopped vegetables is the easiest, of course.  Pour Italian dressing over the top and bake.  You might also like to try different dressings like vinaigrettes.  If you like, add some more seasonings.  Serve the dish with a green salad or some fruit for a complete dinner.

EASY ITALIAN CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES

Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts
2 cups frozen vegetables
1/2 cup Italian Dressing made with Auntie Jean's Low Sodium Italian Dressing Blend*
4 potatoes, peeled and diced

*If you would like to order some Auntie Jean's Low Sodium Italian Dressing Blend, email me at: auntiejeans@yahoo.com
Preparation:
Microwave potatoes for 7 to 10 minutes to precook them since they don't cook as quickly as the rest of the vegetables.  Place chicken in large baking dish. 

Pour potatoes over chicken then add the frozen vegetables.  Pour dressing over the top and bake at 350 degrees for one hour. 

Enjoy!
