So this meal doesn't follow many of my Friday rules. It has pre-made elements and involves grilling, which I've been trying to avoid. But you certainly can use it for roasting pork or chicken inside. It's just delicious and while it was the last element of Mark's birthday meal, which fell on a Sunday, its certainly the kind of dish that you can use on a weeknight. Its really that easy. Obviously, you may want to adjust for a smaller family meal instead of the more party-sized proportion used here.
