Roasted New Potatoes Recipe

After digging up potatoes and onions this afternoon, I decided I could not wait until the weekend to roast the new potatoes.  If you grow your own herbs this recipe can be made almost entirely from the garden. I don’t grow my own olives, so I used store bought olive oil. I intended to serve red, white, and blue potatoes, but ended up serving pink, gold, and purple potatoes instead. Nobody could taste the difference. ; )

My daughter asked me if the colored potatoes were healthier than white potatoes. I did a little research and found that they get their color from pigments called anthocyanins. Although the antioxidant powers of colored potatoes have not been tested, in other foods, like grapes and berries, these anthocyanins have been shown to protect cells against oxidative damage. So they just may be a little bit healthier.

    My girls still won't eat purple potatoes when I find them, but my hubby and me eat them up! Now I'm starving and it is nearly 1 AM-never read blogs at night, I keep telling myself!

    How cool to be able to walk into your own yard and dig up your dinner! And it's gluten free, to boot!

    Add me to the list of those that like the mixture of herbs; I'm going to try them next time. I usually toss ours with a roasted garlic and rosemary olive oil, add some salt and pepper and we're good to go, but I'd like to do something different next time.

    Nice harvest, too. Our potatoes were voluneers this year, and got almost a bag full! They were all red except for two white ones.

    Beautiful! I love all those gorgeous potatoes you have there. I usually do mine with rosemary but these extra herbs sound awesome. Thanks for linking and hope to see you again!

    These are awesome! Someone asked me if I knew anything about purple potatoes just last week and I had never seen them before. I'd love for you to share this recipe at my blog carnival today.

    I like the mix of spices. Normally, when I make these I use paprika or rosemary, depending on my mood. I've never thrown in onions, either. Time for some changes!

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
