Need a red potatoes recipe

Oven roast with a little olive oil, salt and rosemary. SO good and about as low-cal as potatoes get:)

Oven roast with a little olive oil, salt and rosemary. SO good and about as low-cal as potatoes get:)

Exactly what I was going to suggest! I will also add garlic and chop an onion &/or peppers if I have them. I roast them at 425 for about 45 minutes - it caramelizes the onions and peppers, super yummy!

This is the best way to do it! The family loves it. Sometimes I'll bakewith the potatoes and then saute up some asparagus, zuccinni, squash and onions - so Yummy! Oh and a bit of Santa Maria Seasoning Salt (has 1/3 sodium than salt - it's friggin' sweet)

Here's an easy recipe for roasting that I really like:

And another good one (you can increase the cauliflower in this and it is still great)

I made these for my wife and her friends at a Wine Tasting Party a couple weeks ago. It was a huge success.

Stuffed Small Red Potato Shrimp Appetizer


small red potatoes (about 10), unpeeled
extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup cream cheese
4 bacon slices, cooked crisp, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons chives, minced


Bring red potatoes to a boil, simmer until fork-tender but not mushy; put in cold water to stop the cooking and drain. Cut potatoes in half without tearing the skins. Scoop out and discard centers of each small red potato using a melon baller leaving 1/4-inch walls; cut a thin slice off bottom of each small red potato to sit level.


Combine in a small bowl the sour cream, cream cheese, crumbled bacon, seasoning salt, pepper and chives; spoon into potatoes.

I topped each one with a large prawn that I had wrapped in bacon, sprinkled with brown sugar and broiled in the oven.

Sodium: 142

- 1.5 lbs of Alaskan halibut
- Potatoes, chopped into 1/2 chunks
- 10 spears of Asparagus (chopped into 1 inch pieces)
- Scallions (chopped finely)
- 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 tsp salt (skip if you want to cut your sodium intake)
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp tarragon

1) Preheat oven to 400 - 425.
2) Cut up 8 12" x 12" pieces of parchment paper. Arrange four of the pieces on a baking sheet or two.
3) Divide the chopped potatoes, asparagus, and scallions into 1/4's and place in the center of each parchment piece.
4) Arrange a fillet on halibut ontop of the potatoes, asparagus and scallions.
5) Season each with the salt, pepper and tarragon.
6) Pour 1/2 tbsp atop each of the halibut filets.
7) Take remaining parchment pieces and place over the others. Roll the edges up to form a seal on all sides (should be little square-shaped packets now).
8) Place in oven for 20 or so minutes. Remove and serve.


I need to check the baking time later...I'm doing this all from memory.
