I have been thinking about many things pertaining to cuisine lately. In particular the lack of love in the food we consume. When you cook you should feel happy, relaxed, and poor your soul into your dishes. Whether they are gourmet or simple creations, love transforms all food into medicine for the soul. I know it may seem like a hassle to cook with the busy lives we lead, however, make it a habit and you will see the difference it can make in your life. The dish for this week is one of simplicity, heartiness, and flavor. There are no deep fried morsels, no heavy creams or cheeses, no complicated techniques, just pure nature combined to satisfy the palette.
Roman Chicken with Roasted Thyme Potatoes
Red potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, fresh thyme, olive oil, with a pinch of salt and pepper, roasted in the oven, make an excellent side dish for any occasion.
Giada De Laurentiis has a superb and easy to make recipe for Roman style chicken which can be found here:

This recipe was the inspiration for this dish. You can add your own flair to it as I did but keep the core unchanged as it will please the entire family.
Remember that food is life!
