Made this last night and served with Baked Seasoned Salmon#207872 and a green salad...heaven. I followed the directions and used red and green bell peppers and used some dry basil while cooking and topped with some finely shredded basil. The garlic wasn't overpowering and soooo sweet. Definately a keeper. Thank you! Made for Think Pink Tag Event - 2010. -
Delicious! This is so simple to prepare, yet it's so delicious and packed with wonderful flavors. I really liked what the basil contributed, too. Thank you for sharing your recipe, PaulaG. Made for the Pantry tag game (in the Canning and Preserves forum). -
Even though I didn't have any peppers or onions, this was great. I used just a tiny bit of olive oil. The potatoes were a bit crunchy, and delicious. Thanks for sharing! -
Simple, easy, delicious! I've made these before, and I came back for the recipe again. I changed it up a little by adding some lemon zest, and a bit of kosher salt. I like garlic, but I cut it in half and was still great! -
I had some baby potatoes from Trader Joe's and decided on this recipe. I picked the right one! My potatoes were very small -- so I kept them whole. They were wonderful. In addition to the onions and peppers, I also added some asparagus that I wanted to use up. I didn't add the veggies until the last 15 minutes of roasting and they were perfect. I hide the little dish of leftovers in the back of the fridge -- they are MINE!!!!!

I switched the basil for oregano and a little garam masala worked amazing!

These were very tasty and quick to make. I sliced like scalloped instead of wedges and used minced jarred garlic. I also used Wildtree Garlic infused grapeseed oil instead of olive oil to make this already healthy dish even healthier. Very pleased with this:) Thanks for posting.

Great! Lots of flavor for a healthy side. I eliminated the salt and used green onions instead of red, and a red bell pepper to give the dish a hint of sweetness. I will absolutely make this again and again!

These were one of the sides I made for dinner last night. Not one bite was left over after dinner! I used a yellow pepper instead of green, baby yukon gold potatoes (tiny enough that I only cut them in half instead of quarters), 5 cloves of sliced garlic (Mom panicked when she thought I was going to add 10 whole cloves to one recipe, and I couldn't convince her it was going to be okay), and I used the basil paste in a tube rather than the dried basil. I think I ended up cooking them for about 45 minutes instead of the suggested 30, but it wasn't a big deal because other components of the meal were still cooking after the 30 minutes anyhow. We make roasted baby potatoes a lot as it is, but the extra veggies in this recipe add great flavor. Thanks for posting!

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
