Slow roasted Italian chicken and potatoes.

This was just the perfect and easy rustic dish to cook on a exceptional “cold” winters night!! This dish takes a few hrs to cook but, the wait is so worth it. Can’t get any easier than adding just about 5 ingredient to a pot ( plus spices for your chicken) and letting it cook…

Steak and Fontina cheese twice baked potatoes.

This is what I call the ultimate Meat and potato dish!! Completely gluten free and just too damn good to pass up.
