A Mother's Day Feast

Lemon Garlic Chicken & Fingerling Potatoes

 It seems to be that I've created a tradition of having my mom and two grandmothers over for a Mother's Day dinner. This year I wanted to try something besides grilled chicken, but I didn't stray far with two roasted chickens.  THE BEST roasted chickens I've ever had by far; so moist and delicious. My husband and I were actually watching the cooking show that had this chicken on it and I adjusted my menu to have it. To go nicely with the garlic, I chose fun-colored roasted fingerling potatoes.  The great thing about whole chickens is that you'll usually have something left for leftovers. We made pulled chicken tacos with fresh pico de gallo, chicken salad sandwiches (made with cubed chicken, sliced red grapes, chopped walnuts, light mayo, and dijonnaise), and chicken cobb salads.  The chicken salad was delish, if I do say so myself.

My love for cooking started when I could barely reach the countertops. My mom would get out all of the baking supplies and let me create. Needless to say, my cooking techniques have become a bit more sophisticated. I believe that I can recreate anything I see in a restaraunt or cookbook. For this reason, my husband has said that I have "ruined eating out for him". I also believe that anyone can cook a delicious meal at home, gourmet kitchen or not. I'm a working woman but I find that after a long day at work, my kitchen is my sanctuary and I'm never too tired to cook up something new. I get bored very easily so trying new things is always a must! I think that cooking has become such an important part of my life because I love making others happy and I'm able to do that through my food. Thank you to all of my family and friends for all of your love and support, especially my husband Shawn, you are the reasons why I cook!
