PESTO ROAST CHICKEN
I came up with this one on the weekend just wanting to do something a little different from my usual roast chicken and I had some veg in the fridge I wanted to use up. I have listed below what I used but you could use anything like eggplant, yellow zucchini, large tomatoes rather than cherry or even baby carrots so feel free to play around with that. I served ours with the vegetables and also some corn on the cob's, we are trying not to eat to many carbs in the evenings, but it would be nice paired with roasted potatoes as well.
