I did a little grocery shopping today, and I scored big time. My local store had a lonely roast pan sitting on a shelf. The first thing I noticed was the picture on the box. The box had a mouth-watering picture of roast and potatoes. As I got closer to the box, I noticed that it was torn open, and it had a huge bright orange price tag that read $4.99! I quickly grabbed the box. How could I pass up such a deal? I immediately thought of the upcoming holidays and how many turkeys and chickens I could roast with my new roast pan.
It’s safe to say that this roast chicken and vegetables dinner was inspired by my new roast pan. The picture on the box definitely forced my taste buds to make this dinner.
