A Recipe A Week: Week 3 and a bonus recipe!

Get excited because this week I am giving you not one, but two recipes!

Oh, and a really big plus, they're both super easy :)

Week 3: Seasoned Red Potatoes

from 2008 Taste of Home Annual Recipes

12 to 14 small red potatoes

1/4 cup olive oil                  

1/4 cup butter, melted        

1 teaspoon salt                   

1 teaspoon garlic powder   

1 teaspoon dried basil        

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme   

1/2 teaspoon pepper          

Peel a strip from around each potato. Place potatoes in an ungreased 3-qt. baking dish. In a bowl, combine the oil, butter, and seasonings; drizzle over potatoes. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until tender, stirring every 15 minutes. Yield: 6 servings

I used more than 14 potatoes because mine were a little smaller than theirs were in the book.

The whole point of me doing this recipe a week thing was to force myself to try new recipes. However, I have a recipe I'm going to share with you this week as a bonus. It can't be used for a recipe a week because I've done it a million times, but I've had a couple of people ask me for the recipe so I'm going to share it with ya'll!
