This Green Beans, Chicken, and Potatoes “One Pan Wonder” will change your dinner life as you know it. Throw it all in a pan, bake it, and you have a balanced, delicious meal that your family will love!

I’m not a planner. I never have been. In fact, for my birthday one year, my friend actually gave me a planner because she knew I couldn’t remember events or follow a schedule worth a darn. Which makes things hard as a wife when it comes to planning dinners. I can’t even count the number of times that we’ve eaten cereal for dinner because I didn’t have a game plan on what to make or we didn’t have the ingredients for something worthwhile. Don’t get me wrong, we love cereal in our house {almost too much}, but I don’t think it’d be a very motherly thing to do – feeding my kids sugary crap all day long. {Because yes – we are a sugar cereal kind of family. None of that Fiber One nonsense that tastes like food you would feed a horse.}

So, here I am. I’m turning over a new leaf. My goal is to plan out a dinner menu every week. At least I’m going to try to anyway. The thing with me and planning though, is that I like things to be easy. I don’t want to be slaving in the kitchen for 3 hours just for something that is going to be eaten in ten minutes! That’s where this delicious meal comes in. You literally cook everything together. In one pan. {Hence the ‘One Pan Wonder’ title} And it actually tastes freaking good! Call me lazy or whatever you’d like, but there aren’t many things that make me feel more proud than putting in little effort and getting a quality result in return. This is one of those things. Promise me that you’ll try this meal at least once. I have a feeling it will become your new best friend. 😉

I have a feeling this recipe is going to become a staple in our house. Enjoy!
