Grilled Chicken Sausages and Not Really Roasted Vegetable Salad


Funny how things work out...
I had Monday off and as I was resting from the long drive home, Chris drove but I was exhausted, I found this recipe online - Roasted Vegetable Chickpea Salad. I went to the store and got everything except, because I was so sure I had them at home, Chickpeas.

After my total amazement of not knowing what I have and do not have in the pantry I proceeded with the recipe, planning on just omitting the Chickpeas. I turned the oven on and set it to 375 degrees. I popped the pan in the oven and set the timer for 10 minutes, planning on stirring at the 10 minute mark. The timer goes off. I open the oven and thought to myself that the oven did not seem that hot. But I stir the veggies. 10 minutes later I open the oven and darn the oven still did not seem hot. Sigh... The top burners are working, I had made a double batch of brown rice to freeze. Obviously something was wrong. But I baked cookies on Wednesday night and they came out perfect.

I tried the broiler and that worked. I put the Not Roasted Vegetable No Chickpea Salad in a dish and waited until today to deal with it.

We put the Roasted Vegetable Chickpea Salad without Chickpeas in the grill basket and Chris took over. He grilled up some Chicken Sausages and some Italian bread. A perfect meal. Thank you Chris!
