These are the ramblings of a self-described wheat, grain and gluten-free “gourmet girl” that loves to cook and eat good food. I love creating and sharing recipes and photographing “beautiful food”. In July 2012, I eliminated wheat, grains and added sugar from my diet and rediscovered real, whole fresh foods again and effortlessly lost 65+ pounds. Join me in my wheat, grain and gluten-free journey. See how easy it is to enjoy grain free gourmet, one meal at a time! Welcome to my blog. Enjoy!

Quick & Easy Dinner - Chicken, Cauliflower Mash, Broccoli & Biscuits
Today was a super busy day for us. We decorated the house, went Christmas shopping and grocery shopping. Only one son came for dinner this evening since I had dinner with the other one last night. To keep dinner quick, I picked up a rotisserie chicken to save time. I just steamed some fresh broccoli, baked a batch of my Southern Style Buttermilk Biscuits and cooked and mashed fresh cauliflower and stirred in some sharp cheddar cheese. I baked sweet potatoes for the guys. It was a quick, simple and delicious meal that left us plenty of time to work on decorating the house. Every year I say I'm going to cut back on decorations and instead, every year I seem to do more! We are watching Home Alone 2 this evening. I have a few more decorations to put on the tree and I'm almost done. I snapped a quick photo of our meal below. Enjoy!
Looks delicious! Where do you get your rotisserie chicken? So many places add sugar, corn starch, filler, etc...
ReplyDeleteHi nanoparty,
ReplyDeleteWhen I use it, I get it from Ingles or Costco. :-)
That is my kind of dinner. It makes me salivate just viewing. It reminds me of a time when I was getting my rental ready to sell. I was camping in the house; sleeping on a futon mattress. Every evening I would head down to a local market for dinner. They had the best bbq chicken pieces in the deli and a wide array of sides....and a salad bar.
ReplyDeleteI would always get a hind quarter and usually garlic roasted green beans. I never tired of it and would go there now if in the area.
Oh, and I lost weight so fast!! Thank goodness for good thrift stores since my size kept changing.
Hi Judith,
ReplyDeleteThanks! I post these kinds of things to folks are reminded that we can still eat this way even when time is tight and we don't have a lot of time to cook. I'm with you...I love it, too! :-)
