The weather here in northern California has turned cold again. So we decided to make our favorite Garlic Roast Chicken with Roasted Root Vegetables. Basically we have been cooking this dish for at least twenty years; but like all of our recipes, it has evolved and improved with time. This latest rendition is extremely tasty, healthy and relatively low calory. It is comfort food at it’s finest and on a cold wintery day, brings warmth to the body, mind and spirit. —Tom and Anita Morgan
