Another Pinterest find. But I can not find the original source, so if someone knows it, please email it to me so I can give credit where credit is due! Ever since having a baby, cooking has been a challenge. Just getting to the grocery store takes some serious determination, and this has only happened once with baby in tow. So I have been forced to get back to basics and find even simpler recipes to get us back in the groove with our new way of life with a baby. Oh, and living on one paycheck for 3 months has also made CHEAP a new MUST when trying a new recipe.
These potatoes flip the bill…cheap and easy. And yes, of course, yummy…but that should be a given right? I’ve found myself using zesty italian and regular italian dressing mixes on so many meals now. Whenever I see it on sale I buy a ton of them to keep on hand! It goes great with most veggies and meats…with the help of some melted butter.
Ingredients
-1 bag baby potatoes (or cube up some red potatoes)
-1 package zesty Italian dressing mix
-extra virgin olive oil
-minced onion
-salt
-pepper
-grated Parmesan cheese
Directions
-Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
-Place potatoes in large bowl
-Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle entire package of zesty Italian dressing mix, a pinch of salt, a pinch of pepper, and 2 pinches of minced onion.
-Stir to coat evenly
-Spread potatoes on baking sheet
-Bake in oven for 45 minutes or until fork tender.
-Top with grated Parmesan cheese.
Enjoy!

What an awesome idea! I would love for you to share this at what i am eating http://www.townsend-house.com/2013/05/what-i-am-eating.html We roast potatoes a lot around here, but I typically use garlic/dill/olive oil. Will definitely have to try this!
