Don’t you love those days when things don’t go quite like you planned?

I am one of those neurotic types that make huge lists in an attempt to stay organized. I also keep a big calendar in the hallway of my mudroom. All my guys pass that calendar often as they are going in and out the door. So why, oh why do they spring things on me at the last minute?

Don’t they know that I can’t be at football practice and a swim meet at the same time? Do you think that they care if I have a hair appointment at the same time that they want to go to a birthday party? As hard as I try to be prepared and organized, my guys are GREAT at causing chaos!

They stress me out and they still want me to feed them every day—tee hee! Is it any wonder that I choose meals like this Italian Marinated Roasted Chicken? I depend on recipes that require little to no effort. I have found that multitasking is the only way that I can survive most nights, so being able to throw dinner in the oven is a necessity some nights!

This recipe for Italian Marinated Roasted Chicken is a fabulous meal for a busy weeknight. You simply marinate your chicken, chop a few veggies and toss it all in the oven. Cook up some zucchini at the last minute for a full meal that tastes great but doesn’t eat up all your time!

Plus, it’s made with Wish-Bone® dressing so you know it’s packed with great flavor. This recipe uses Wish-Bone’s E.V.O.O. Lemon Herb Dressing. You get a fresh, tangy taste that pairs perfectly with the chicken and veggies. My guys love the taste and I am thrilled being able to whip up dinner with hardly any effort.
