Garlicky Roasted Potatoes With Herbs
"From Cooking Light. If you want them to be a bit more decadent, mix the fried garlic and lemnon with a bit of melted butter before mixing with the roasted potatoes at the end. Though the recipe doesn't specify- I flip them half way through the roasting time."

Another recipe that I had cut out from Cooking Light myself. Unfortunately I have not been thrilled with many recent ones I've tried from them. This was ok, liked it, certainly didn't hate it, but it didn't have the wow factor for me. Future reviewers, I would definitely use the chef's idea of adding melted butter to the garlic mixture-I think it would make the recipe much more appealing, as I found the mixture didnt really stick to the potatoes so I wasn't getting the full flavor with every bite. I may not have used enough salt on the potatoes themselves, and thought maybe adding a little to the garlic mixture might have helped. It's easy and quick to prepare, just wasn't a favorite for me.

I am a former retail management slave who is now a stay at home mom who absolutely loves her job. I have an eight year old, a two year old and a nine month old who all bring their own kind of joy to my life. My favorite thing in the world is to cook. We have a real, from scratch family dinner almost every night. Please don't be offended if I somewhat change a recipe in my review. I look at recipes sort of as guidelines, and alter them according to inspiration. I've received alot of helpful advice from reviews, that's why I share what I've done differently. With my little ones I'm pretty busy, but I LOVE this site and plan on being even more active as they get older.
