The reason why....

A few years ago I made the New Year's resolution to try a new recipe each week to encourage more creativity in my cooking. At the time I was newly married and wanted to change what I cooked. What I learned is that I love to cook and I especially love to try new things....even if they don't turn out or I don't like the taste. At least I accomplished something...

Quick Side Dish

Potatoes are a staple at my house.  I'm always looking for a quick way to make them as I usually don't have the hour it takes to bake them whole.  I came across this recipe recently and tried it on some friend over for dinner.  We all agreed they would also make a good breakfast side!

From allrecipes.com:

Roasted Rosemary Onion Potatoes

1 small onion, finely chopped
2 T vegetable oil
2 T chopped fresh rosemary (or ½ t dried)
1 t chopped fresh thyme (or ¼ t dried)
1/4 t salt
1/8 t ground black pepper
1 1/3 pounds potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a large baking sheet with a rim.
2. Mix onion, vegetable oil, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper in a large bowl
3. Add potato pieces and toss to coat. 
4. Spread potatoes into prepared pan in a single layer.
5. Bake, turning occasionally, until potatoes are lightly browned and tender when pierced with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes.

Family Factor: really good!
Time Factor: pretty quick
Stomach Factor: very mild
