favorite new go to dinner

I have a new favorite go to dinner recipe that we LOVE! Its super easy and super delicious and it also happens to be super good for you.

Mediterranean Roasted Chicken and Quinoa Salad

Chicken
- take a whole chicken and rub it down with olive oil, garlic, salt, parsley and lemons. Stuff the lemons and garlic inside the chicken.
- cook chicken in oven at 450 for 30 min to brown and crisp the skin and seal in the juices. Lower heat to 375 and cook approx 1 more hour depending on size of the chicken.

Salad
- mix cooked quinoa, kalmata olives, feta, cubed cucumbers, and diced red pepper with olive oil, salt and oregano. Chill before serving.

Its such a light summer meal that has minimal prep time and is pretty much fool proof :)

I don't have a picture of our delicious meal so you will have to make do with this.....
