The humble potato...

For our family, potatoes are a staple. I often overlook them for recipes because they are just so easy to do. But, I will work on posting a couple of ways I use the ordinary potato to make our meals tasty.

Roasted Rosemary Potato Wedges

Ingredients
3 med. Unpeeled red potatoes
¼ tsp. pepper
olive oil
½ tsp. rosemary
½ tsp. salt

Scrub potatoes; cut each potato in half lengthwise, then cut those halves again in half or thirds creating wedges.

If you have time, place in a bowl and cover with cold water. Let stand 30 min. Drain. Pat wedges with dry paper towels.

Toss wedges with olive oil. Place skin side down on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray (or olive oil). Combine salt, dried rosemary and pepper. Sprinkle mixture evenly over wedges.

Bake at 400 degrees for about 50 minutes to 1 hour or until wedges are tender and browned.
