Finger Licking Good




Today I was supposed to be gone in the afternoon, when I would typically be fixing dinner. So, this morning I tossed some spare ribs in the crockpot and mixed in a bottle of barbecue sauce. Set it on low and let them cook all day. When my plans fell through for this afternoon, I decided to add some new potatoes and a tossed salad to our dinner rather than just canned veggies. The potatoes were a new "recipe" that we all loved!!! I thought that I was making a ton of ribs and we would have them for leftovers tomorrow night... Little did I know that my darling 6 year old would eat 7 ribs, sucking the bones clean! I guess I'll be figuring something else for tomorrow night! Anyway! This was a great, simple dinner that my family loved! We all need those every now and again!




Mustard baked new potatoes (neither of my kids love mustard, but they certainly loved these!)




2-3 lbs red new potatoes, cut into bite sized pieces
1-2 onions, halved and then cut into slices

olive oil

2-3 Tablespoons whole grain mustard

kosher salt

pepper




Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Place potatoes and onions on a cookie sheet that has sides!!!!! (mine didn't have sides and I have a big mess in the bottom of my oven... not to mention the smoke that filled my house!) Drizzle maybe 2-3 Tablespoons olive oil over potatoes and onions. Mix in the whole grain mustard and sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper. Toss all together. Bake at 425 degrees for about 1 hour. With a metal spatula stir or toss everything 2-3 times during the cooking time. I promise you will like this one!!!!!
