Weekday Dinner

It's been about 6 months since I've started work full-time again, and it is turning out to be a bit of a challenge to cook dinner at home at a weekday.

Usually, I'd try to cook one weekday night a week and it'd usually be a one dish meal - roasted chicken with vegetables, fish soup with tofu and vegetables or noodles.

The Mother-in-law is here for 2 weeks and what that means is we'd be having lots of homecooked meals.. and most importantly, lots of yummy soup!

My version of a fuss-free dinner - roasted chicken with 
sausages and pumpkin. Brocolli and other greens are added 
towards the end of the roasting process for a more complete meal

I've always thought roast chicken quite a hassle... 'cos it takes 1 hr to cook. How do you manage to turn around a quick meal after work? Or does no fuss mean you pop in oven and go mess with other stuff?

Hehe.. No fuss because I marinate it the day before.. Then for dinner I pop it into the oven, then wash and cut up vegetables and throw them in. And then I go shower and after that dinner is ready.. so relatively fuss free cos I don't have to be hanging around in the kitchen :)
