Seasonal Grilled Vegetables with Chicken Breast

This meal is a great low carb option. If you are looking for a rustic meal, this dish will hit the spot. The chicken was juicy and the vegetables were crisp and fresh tasting.

Blueberry Ricotta Pancakes

Been getting this for awhile and it's always been good but this time they hid a totally blackened, burned pancake on the bottom of the stack. Is it really too much to remake 1 pancake?

Chicken was tough and dry. Hardly any marinara sauce. Not worth the price!
