Roasted Ranch Red Potatoes



The red potatoes looked lonely in the bottom of my refrigerator.

They did have a friend with them . . .

but they got separated!

I had plans for both of them earlier.

But those plans got thwarted!

Now, I had to make a new plan . . .

Roasted Ranch Red Potatoes!

The Mr. and the cherubs love almost any veggie that I roast.

Potatoes are no different!

I wanted to add a little zest to those cuties,

after all, I had left them in the refrigerator to meat their doom if I didn't make a quick decision!

Roasted Ranch Red Potatoes

6 red potatoes (or as many or as few as you need)
olive oil
1 or 2 dry ranch dressing mixes (make sure they are gluten free if that's your need!)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Wash and cube red potatoes.

Place in a bowl and lightly drizzle with olive oil.

You want just enough to coat but not too much to make greasy.

Sprinkle the desired amount of ranch mix onto the potatoes.  Toss to coat.

Place on foil lined baking sheet and spread out in a single layer.

Cook until the potatoes are fork tender and brown in color.

Half way through the cooking time, turn the potatoes to offer each side a chance to brown . . .it's only fair!

Serve warm.

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! But because these are simple ingredients, you'll be able to throw it together in a moments notice! Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup 3-4 chicken breasts; cooked and shredded (or whole chicken;  cooked & shredded) olive oil 1 c onion, chopped 1 c bell pepper, chopped 1 c celery, chopped 1 c carrots, chopped 1/2 T minced garlic 2 t cumin 2 t coriander 1 t paprika 1 t red chili powder 1 T oregano 1/2 t cayenne (adjust to your taste) 1 28-oz can diced to

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
