After a busy day of tending to the garden, running all your errands, attending your volunteer meetings, and watching over your sweet grandkids, you need a hearty meal that isn't too complicated... you just had a very busy day! No need to spend what's left of it in the kitchen. Poppy Seed Chicken Bake is the answer to your busy-day-blues. Okay, okay, we know you're not sad, but you definitely need a break!

Don't be afraid to slow down and unwind; Poppy Seed Chicken Bake has dinner taken care of tonight!
