To start my morning off I toasted a Thomas Light 100 Calorie Multigrain English Muffin that I topped with Smucker's Sugarfree Blackberry Jam. Also had my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Big change in the weather again. It's been in the 50's and 60's and it was 29 degrees this morning and a high of 37 degrees, mostly cloudy. After Breakfast I headed out to Meijer to do some grocery shopping. On the way back home I stopped and got gas and then by McDonald's to pick up Breakfast for Mom. Later on grabbed a broom and the leaf blower and cleaned off the deck and driveway areas. For Dinner tonight I prepared a Baked Whole Seasoned Roaster Chicken w/ Mashed Potatoes, Italian Cut Beans, and Baked Garlic Bread Loaf.
I had posted a while back that they opened a new Super Kroger store to replace the smaller Kroger up the road from us. The other day when I was there I seen that they had the PERDUE® OVEN READY WHOLE SEASONED ROASTER. With the bigger store comes way more of selections of food! The prices are still high though which is why if I have time I go to Meijer or Walmart to do most of my shopping. Anyway it was great finding the Perdue Roaster again!
As I said it came frozen so I let it thaw overnight in the fridge. To prepare it is a breeze! It came
open outer bag and removed Oven Ready Roaster, sealing in a cooking bag. Placed in a shallow roasting pan, breast side up. Cut a 1 inch slit in cooking bag over the breast to vent during cooking. The instructions said that the Cooking bag will expand during cooking and to allow enough room for the bag to expand without touching oven rack or walls. The instructions say the best way to prepare it is from fresh. Once oven had been pre-heated to 400°F, I lowered oven temperature to 350°F. Placed the pan with Oven Ready Roaster (still in cooking bag) on lower shelf of oven and roasted for approximately 2 hours 15 minutes until a meat thermometer registered an internal temperature of 180°F in the breast.
Removed it from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes. Cut open the cooking bag (use care to avoid hot steam and juices) and transfer Roaster to serving plate or cutting board. Removed the string from legs and carved. The Chicken came out perfect! Moist, juicy, and flat-out delicious! So glad I can find these again!
To go with the Chicken you can't go wrong with Mashed Potatoes! I prepared some Bob Evan’s
Mashed Potatoes. Just microwave for 6 minutes and serve, just as good as homemade, if not better.
Then for another side dish I heated a can of Allens Cut Italian Green Beans. To prepare them just
empty the can into a small sauce pan and simmer until heated. Just season with a bit of Sea Salt and it’s ready! I also had come across a loaf the RiverRoad Bake House Garlic Loaf Bread buried in the freezer. So I baked that. Still haven't found a place that carries it since Meijer no longer has it. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.
