The potato wedges are crispy on the outside, but soft and creamy on the inside. The spices and Parmesan are a perfect match for the potatoes.
Because you can microwave the potatoes ahead of time (same day) and let them cool, this recipe is super quick. They would work for a weeknight side dish or a satisfying snack.
I am so glad that both my kids like vegetables. I try to vary how they are made so they don’t become boring. This recipe was a special treat because it had brown sugar. Even though the recipe has simple ingredients, they taste amazing.
These potatoes are truly spectacular. They are perfectly seasoned, creamy, and tender. The onion flavors balance well with the potatoes. We couldn’t eat enough of these. We made them twice in one week.
Sugar snap peas are so sweet and full of wonderful flavor. These are irresistible for a side or even a snack. The seasonings allow the flavor to come through beautifully. You will never look at peas the same after trying this recipe. They are totally delicious!
These potatoes are crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. The potatoes are mildly spicy because I am a wimp. Adjust to your liking. The spices add a delightful flavor to the crisp potatoes.
This dish tastes amazing. It is cheesy and creamy. The flavor, which is mild, will go well with any main dish. It does take your attention to make it, but it is well worth it for a special meal.
We love asparagus and have tried it mostly roasted or fried. With all kinds of cheeses and spices. They were all great. But I am telling you, this recipe beats them all! The asparagus spears are seasoned perfectly with a crispy, cheesy crumb on the outside. This recipe is our all-time favorite.
I love carrots, especially when they are in season. Of course, you can make this dish any time of year. We have tried baby carrots (our favorite), regular carrots, and rainbow carrots. They all work in this recipe. The glaze is slightly spiced and sweet, a perfect match for the carrots. This dish adds a bright visual addition to any meal.
These potatoes elevate mashed potatoes to a new level. They taste amazing and look fantastic. They make your meal extra special, but they are fairly easy to make.
This is not a boring salad. It is full of fresh flavors, and the vinaigrette adds a nice touch. The crunch of the pecans takes the place of the usual croutons. The goat cheese adds a wonderful creamy texture to this salad. This is one of our favorite salads.
