Dinner? I guess...

On the 9th, I had no idea what I was going to make for dinner. But, I had chicken, sweet potatoes, apples & onions. So, I cut up the fruit & veggies, put them in a dish and seasoned them with parsley. I placed the chicken on top, seasoned that with sage & rosemary, covered with foil & baked it all.

It looked like this:


Well, the veggies & apples were well cooked and I wasn't sure how they would hold up to trying to eat them with a fork. I had the *great* idea to just mash it like mashed potatoes. I should have known that after that the kids probably wouldn't touch it. It was good. I liked the flavor, but the kids were having none of it. I put myself in their shoes.


Admit it, as a kid, you probably wouldn't have eaten it either. But it did taste good... to my husband & me. I know what bothered the kids, I think. I should have used the immersible blender and really given it a good mashing. But I used my hand mixer, so the onions didn't quite get mashed up as well as I would have liked. I think that is probably what did it in for the kids. At least they tasted it.
