Oven Roasted Potatoes

During the warmed months I love to do a lot of grilling with salads.  We never buy French fries, but always have a bag of red and Idaho potatoes in the pantry for a night when we need a quick side dish.  This particular evening we had made our favorite flank steak recipe, which I still need to post.  I had made a big green salad and cut up a bunch of fruit but was still needing something else.  So I cubed some little red potatoes, tossed then with olive oil, Parmesan cheese and garlic salt and baked them in the oven for 30-40 minutes.  They were the perfect thing for the meal, plus they were easy and quick!


Oven Roasted Potatoes

3 lbs little red potatoes
3-4 Tbsps olive oil
garlic salt, season to taste
1-2 tsp fresh minced garlic
Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cube potatoes into quarters, add to large mixing bowl. Add oil, garlic and garlic salt, mix well.  Pour onto a bar pan or cookie sheet.  Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.  Roast for 15 minutes, stir, then cook for another 15-20 minutes.  Serve immediately.

Not Yo Mama's Banana Pudding (Re-post with a picture )

Does this dessert sound familiar to you?  I originally posted it last Summer, but didn't have a picture at the time.  I'm excited to be able to post this picture now so you can see how yummy it looks!  I first had this pudding at a BBQ last Summer.  One bite and I was hooked.  This fabulous pudding sits on top of a layer of bananas and is sandwiched between two delicious cookies. Does it get any better than that?  Banana pudding didn't used to be something I craved, but it definitely is now.  It is Heavenly!  Also, it's very easy to make.  So try it out sometime.  I bet you'll become a banana pudding fan too.

Royal Icing for Sugar Cookies

While I love my Scrumptious Sugar Cookie frosting , Royal Icing is the way to go for decorated cookies that harden enough to stack and package. It definitely takes more time and patience, but the end result is so satisfying! You can make such fun cookies without having to worry about the frosting coming off.  Royal Icing can get super hard, and while this is perfect for building Gingerbread Houses, it’s not so great when you want to actually eat the cookie. Not to worry though- adding in a little corn syrup helps the icing dry firm without being overly hard.  I also like to add in my favorite butter vanilla emulsion to make the icing extra yummy, cause at the end of the day it’s not enough to just look pretty!  There are a few different ways to make Royal Icing. My favorite method is using Meringue Powder. If you can’t find this or don’t want to buy it, you can use egg whites instead. Or, if you’re in a pinch you can make some with just powdered sugar and water. You can find some recip

Brown Butter Caramel Snickerdoodles

If you try one new cookie recipe this Fall, let it be this one!! I'm not kidding when I say that this is  one of the best cookies I've ever made.  They've already received rave reviews and comments such as, "Amazing!", and "Incredible!"  These are not your average snickerdoodle, not that I have anything against the traditional ones, they are made with browned butter and extra brown sugar for a rich caramel taste.  But wait, it also has a caramel center! And of course that classic chewy texture with a cinnamon/sugar coating.  I could eat these every single day. They are SO GOOD you guys!
