We have decided to start a blog to share our recipes and to also keep them in a place we can easily access them. We hope you enjoy them and the little tid bits of our lives that we throw in. Most recipes will be based on primal principles although a few non-primal baked goods may slip in :)

Roasted Chicken and Swiss Chard


After a long walk in this AMAZING early spring weather, we were all set for a very yummy dinner.

We have changed things up this week and instead of making a whole chicken for lunches, we made one for dinner! Adam quartered the chicken and just added salt and pepper and stuck in the oven for 45 minutes at 425 degrees.

We have found a new favorite veggie: Swiss Chard. It comes in a few different variations: green , red and rainbow. We have used rainbow before and this time used red.

It is a pretty easy veggie to make. We heated 3 tablespoons of butter and a half cup of chicken broth over medium high heat. Chop up the chard, remove the tough stalk. Add the chard to the pan and cook with the lid on. Be sure to mix it up every so often. It takes about 15 minutes to cook. Basically sauteed very much like cooked spinach.

Enjoy!
