Place lemons and garlic cloves in main cavity of chicken. Tie legs together. Place chicken on rack in a roasting pan. Roast for 45 minutes, then tent with foil to prevent over browning.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
