There IS such a thing?!?

Artichoke bottoms, a variety of bell peppers, olives, onions, brown rice
"vegelaya." and a tall glass of... ice water. Maybe an oreo or two, after.

I was going to roast a chicken for my husband's dinner, too, but I have to
use the oven. I'd like to do something different with the chicken, but I
honestly don't have many ingredients to work with. It's a whole chicken, so
I'll most likely just season it with salt & pepper, toss on a little thyme,
and towards the end of the roast add in potatoes, onions and garlic. (My
husband eats roasted garlic like candy.)

What I'm going to eat is still up in the air.

Ooooh. Salade Nicoise... Good with salmon too. No potatoes for
me, but otherwise doable... Good idea!
