My Silly Little Sniffer

Abby has been doing this sniffing face lately.  At first I thought it meant she wanted more food, which I think it does sometimes….but other times I think she does it just to make her brothers laugh at her.  Silly girl. (Sorry I can’t ever figure out how to rotate the video, so you’ll have to view it sideways).

Oven Roasted Mushrooms & Potatoes

Awesome recipe that my friend, Sally, made for us when we were at their house for dinner.  It was so delicious I had to pass this along...

Oven Roasted Mushrooms and Potatoes

1.5 pounds potatoes cut in 1/2 inch chunks (about 4.5 cups)

2 Tbsp vegetable oil

1 lb fresh white mushrooms halved or quartered (about 5 cups)

1 c bell pepper cut into 1/2 inch chunks

1 tsp minced garlic

1/2 c sliced green onions

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp thyme

1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 450.  In a large 9x13 pan toss potatoes with oil.  Bake uncovered 10 min.  Stir in mushrooms, pepper, garlic and bake uncovered until potatoes are nearly tender, about 15 min.  Stir in green onions, salt, thyme and pepper, bake until vegetables are tender, about 10 min longer.

I usually leave out the thyme and use kosher salt.  You can play with the proportions pretty easily, too, and just bake a little longer or add more oil if it looks too dry.
