Roasted Gold Potatoes



Yesterday, I needed a side to put with our grilled chicken.  Quick-like, I thought of potatoes!  They're often under-rated but potatoes are actually so delicious and extremely versatile!

Roasted Gold Potatoes
1 yukon gold potato per person
olive oil
Herbs de Provence
coarse sea salt

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Wash potatoes well and dice the potatoes into whatever size you like, just keep it uniform in size for even bake time.  If your potatoes are small, you may want to throw in a couple of extra just to be safe.

Place diced potatoes in large bowl and drizzle with olive oil, maybe a couple of tablespoons.  Sprinkle a generouls amount of Herbs de Provence in the bowl.  Use a large spoon to toss potatoes until well coated.

Pour onto a foil lined baking sheet.  Sprinkle with a smidge of sea salt.  Herbs de Provence has thyme, rosemary, basil, tarragon, lavender flower, and savory in the mix.  It is salt free -- that's why you need to add a bit of salt to the mix.

Bake for 20 minutes or until done.  Of course, bake time depends on the amount of potatoes you're cooking.  You'll want them to be easily pierced with a fork and have a nice goldeny-roasted color.



Serve warm.

**you can use this on fingerlinge potatoes, red new potatoes, or regular russet potatoes.

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers;  the best there are!  I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy!  They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup.  I found it at www.tastebook.com   I made some adjustments to the recipe.  Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients.  I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su

Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup

 I've been to eat at Neiman Marcus one time. It was really good! "Everyone" talks about the Neiman Marcus cafe and the things they love from there. Because I've only been once, my variety of selection is limited! However, I have had lunch with friends that serve this Neiman Marcus soup recipe. It is so delicious that I wanted to pass it along to you! If your weather is like our weather, one day you're making soup and the next your grilling out!

Creamy Poblano Chicken Dinner

Picture used from "My Recipes.com" My picture didn't look nearly as appetizing! We've been eating this since the late 90's. Oh man!  That sounds like we're really old! This is one of those fantastic Southern Living Recipes that looks really hard, sounds really gourmet-ish, and is so easy! Whenever the Mr. requests his birthday dinner, it's always this meal! He had his 43rd birthday yesterday! To go along with his new "older" age, we recently counted the number of doctors he has. Yes, doctors! Right now in life, it's not his social outlet to visit these physicians on a regular basis . .  .but none-the-less, he has a well-rounded network of doctors that can take care of any need of his, ranging from his head to his toes. What a treat it is to get older. But with getting older comes this meal! Serve this with a green salad and dessert and you'll be the hit of the party! Creamy Poblano Chi
