Cooking with Kids – Winter Vegetables – Potato Medley with Rosemary and Olive Oil – Good all year around!

Share

Background:
There are so many wonderful potatoes around now – that making a winter medley with children is so much fun. My grandsons love to help! And this is  a really easy delicious recipe.

Ingredients:

  • Assorted potatoes in season – Yukon Gold, Sweet potatoes and Yams, about half a potato per person
  • A sprig of fresh rosemary
  • 1/2 cup of olive oil spread among two baking pans
  • Patience with the little ones!

Directions:

  1. Heat the oven to 395 degrees
  2. Chop the rosemary leaves into small pieces
  3. Peel the potatoes and cube
  4. Place potatoes into the pans which have a little olive oil drizzled on the bottom
  5. Salt and pepper to taste – drizzle the rest of the olive oil on top of the potatoes
  6. Sprinkle the chopped rosemary leaves onto the potatoes
  7. Bake for one hour or until tender and a little bit browned
  8. Serve with anything – chicken, beef, lamb or with goat cheese sprinkled on top as a main dish ( we make our own)! YUMMY! Here is Jonah who is snacking on carrots while helping out. His favorite breakfast, lunch and dinner is broccoli, carrots and peppers. Gotta love this child!
