Welcome!

I don't know how most of you feel, but I have decided that my menu needs a little more variety. So, in search of new delightful dishes to try, I thought it would be fun to start a recipe swap. I hope you'll take the time to share some of your favorites, and maybe find a few new ones to add to your own collection!

Thanksgiving Sweet Potatoes

Recipe from Hanna Griffiths

This recipe is for fresh sweet potatoes.  You will need to start by either boiling them or baking them in the oven (just like a baked potato). Then peel them, slice them and layer them in a casserole dish. After each layer, sprinkle with dabs of butter and brown sugar. You can put marshmallows on top too. Heat uncovered in 350* - 400* oven (whatever you have your oven temp set at for other Thanksgiving recipes is usually fine) until potatoes are nice and warm, and marshmallows are a little toasty. 

Herb Roasted Potatoes

Herb Roasted Potatoes

Oven temp: 375 degrees
Yield: 4 to 6 servings


6 large potatoes, cut in chunks
6 medium onions, quartered
1/3 cup vegetable oil or extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp. coarsely ground pepper
1 Tbsp. dried parsley flakes
1 tsp. dried leaf basil
1/4 tsp. dried thyme

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place potatoes and onions in a baking dish or shallow roasting pan. Drizzle the oil over vegetables and sprinkle with seasonings. Lightly stir vegetables to coat all sides with oil and seasonings; bake, uncovered for about 1 hour, or until fork-tender, turning occasionally to keep the vegetables from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Serve immediately.
