What's For Dinner - Vegetable Medley

I haven't done one of these posts in a long time. I made this for dinner tonight and it was SO DANG YUMMY I just had to share. Even my kids LOVED it. I participate in a food co-op every week. I love all the fresh fruits and veggies I get for only $15! If you are interested, you should check it out. They have locations all over UT and some in ID, AZ and TX. I love it because I get my fruits and veggies there, and we have tried so many things we never would have tried otherwise. I go to a bread outlet about once a month and stock up on bread that I freeze. I buy 8-10 gallons of milk at a time and put them in my extra fridge. That means I make a trip to Costco or Sam's about once a month and a trip to a regular grocery store about once a month. I LOVE not having to go to the store every week! And I save a ton because there are no impulse buys (except for that one trip a month).

Anyway, back to dinner. I had a lot of leftover veggies that I needed to use from the past few weeks. So I took a baking dish, threw some chicken tenders in, then cut up whatever vegetables I wanted to get rid of. They were: potatoes, carrots, zucchini, mushrooms, and red and green bell peppers. I threw those on top of the chicken. I also added some minced garlic. Then I took a bottle of store brand "Olive Oil and Vinegar" salad dressing and dumped that on top of the whole thing and popped it into the oven. An hour and a half later we had the most fabulous dinner. I served it with Rhodes rolls. 'Cause I'm fancy like that. So seriously, it was the easiest dinner to make and it was delish. Next time you have a plethora of vegetables, you should give it try!
