I’m always trying to come up with new ways to make potato side dishes. I love mashed potatoes, but to be honest, I’m too lazy to make them very often. Here is a potato side dish that is amazingly delicious and comes together in minutes. It’s so easy!!
In a large bowl combine:
- 24 ounces baby potatoes (I think these things are so cute!!)
- 1 pint grape tomatoes (again… cute)
Top them with:
- 1/8 C olive oil
- 1 t salt
- 1/4 t black pepper
- 1 t rosemary
- 1 t thyme
Stir this all together and spread it out on a baking sheet lined with foil (just to make your life easier when it’s time to clean up). Roast them in a 400 degree oven for 30 minutes.
Since I only buy baby potatoes or grape tomatoes when they are on sale, I’ve often substituted a chopped russet potato and some chopped roma tomatoes. It’s not quite as amazingly wonderful, but it’s still very tasty.
I don’t see them very often, but when I do, I definitely scoop up these potatoes (hard for me to find multi-colored anything – carrots, tomatoes, kale, beets, etc.). Love them for their color and their size. You can use them as a side or stuff them as an appi. 🙂
