My ‘tired mom dinner’ was great when I didn’t buy groceries – I made it up as I went but it was delicious and flavorful
A MOM has shared the quick and easy dinner recipe she used when she didn’t go grocery shopping.
Not only is the meal convenient, but she said it’s also delicious and flavorful.
Kristy Ehmer (@kristyehmer) shared the recipe with over 60,000 TikTok followers.
The mom, exhausted with daily responsibilities, settled on the quick and easy dinner.
“I clearly have not grocery-shopped, as you can tell by my realistic, sad, not fancy TikTok fridge but I do have this so we’re going to make something up as we go along tonight,” she said.
First, she chopped up some baby potatoes, carrots, and onions she had on hand.
Next, she added a brown gravy packet, Italian herbs, olive oil, and some garlic.
For protein, she put in some chicken and surrounded the meat with her seasoned vegetables.
She popped the pan into the oven at 425 degrees for half an hour and basted it with beef broth to keep the chicken moist.
She wrapped the chicken with foil and removed it from the pan while the veggies finished roasting.
People took to the comments to share their thoughts on her recipe.
Many felt her struggle: “Me literally staring in the cold abyss of pickles and a half-empty vodka bottle,” said one commenter.
“Looks delicious! Love how real this is! Hope it turned out as great as it looks!” said another.
“Thank you! It was very delicious and flavorful,” Kristy replied.
