Her cookbook is filled with recipes and helpful hints for busy moms to help get dinner on the table. She truly believes in the #SundaySupper mission and will be joining us on twitter today at 7PM EST. Join us to chat healthy, family meals with Katie.
The theme of the week is easy back to school recipes, below you will find numerous other delicious recipes from the book shared by other lovely #SundaySupper bloggers. You can also check out Katie’s helpful tips on preparing back to school meals.
I first made this chicken when Isabel posted it after the first event with The Mom 100 Cookbook: 100 Recipes Every Mom Needs in Her Back Pocket . I love roasted chicken because I make them into a one dish meal. Throw a few veggies and starches in with the chicken and everything is ready for the table at the same time. Not to mention the leftovers. Who doesn’t like leftover chicken? We use it in everything whether I need a quick chicken, pasta, and pesto dinner the following night or wraps for lunch. Leftover chicken is about the best leftover there is.

I have tried this recipe and my family absolutely loves it. So much so, that I always make 2 at a time and we use the chicken to reinvent leftovers into wraps, quesadillas and more!
We would have chicken for a lifetime roasting 2 lol! But it’s a great idea for large families.
The great thing about this chicken is aside from the flavor it makes the house smell incredible when it is cooking. By the time it is done you are so hungry! Yum, yum, yum!
House smells so good!
Wonderful post and wonderful idea to use the leftover chicken for wraps. I believe the chicken meat will be tastier the next day. Thanks for sharing.
It is so good the next day.
I’m jealous of your beautiful roasted chicken! Mine never looks so pretty! YUM!
Hey, as long as they taste good who cares about looks!
I adore roasted chicken, and this recipe looks so good. Happy #SundaySupper!
Mmm me too, this recipe is a winner!
This is a great recipe, especially when it gets a little cooler. And the leftovers are the best! Happy #SundaySupper!
Thanks Patti. It’s delicious!
Mmmm…roast chicken is the ultimate comfort food. This sounds amazing!
Thanks Heather!
I agree, roasted chicken makes the best leftover. And the best wraps and sandwiches! nice pic!
Sometimes I get more excited about the leftovers than dinner!
This looks awesome! This cookbook has inspired me to try this recipe come fall time! Thanks for sharing!
So many great recipes. I look forward to trying more.
Looks great! Fantastic idea for reusing the next day. I personally love vegetables roasted with meat. Have you heard of Bubble & Squeak? If you cook a lot of roasted veggies with the chicken next time, perhaps Bubble & Squeak would be a good way to get extra mileage out of your meal and dollar.
I had never heard of Bubble & Squeak until I popped over to your page. What a neat idea. Will have to give it a shot next time.
Beautifully roasted! I will add this to my list of recipes to try from this wonderful cookbook! Happy #SundaySupper~
It was a great recipe! I highly recommend it.
