Chicken breasts stuffed with sun dried tomatoes & feta cheese, sauteed new potatoes, and.....

Still looking for some "health" to accompany the rest of my meal tonight. Any ideas?

NB: No I-dave nonsense please ๐Ÿ™‚

Spinach (or other greens of your choice) with garlic.

roast veg (tomatoes, courgettes, red onions etc) or spinach gets my vote. Kale might be a little "strong" for the other flavours

Liking the sound of the roast veg. Although if I go with that option I may boil the potatoes. Don't want to much oil on the plate?!

Keep em coming guys ๐Ÿ˜€

If going for the veg option, just roast the new potatoes in with them.

New spuds, cherry tomtatoes, red onion and peppers work well tossed in oil, salt, pepper and a touch of Balsamic.

it has to be some asparagus with a little butternut squash

i would perosnally swap the feta for some goats cheese.

cover the chicken breast in maple syrup first & marinate for a couple of hours.

Good shout big bud, id already thought of swapping out for goats cheese.

And at the moment its a straight fight between roasted veg and new potatoes, or roasted potatoes and asparagus. Life is great when this will be the hardest decision I make all day.

Roast veg is good, but I like jamie oliver's notion of adding some form of acid, eg orange juice to carrots, balsamic to beetroot, white wine vinegar to parsnips
Also, I sometimes roast them on a sheet of puff pastry for a flan type thing
Roast beetroot is excellent, but best to boil it for half an hour or so as it takes forever to roast
