I made these tonight. OMG they are wonderful. A friend of mine brought over some thin skinned red potatoes from his parent's garden. Fresh and beautiful. I boiled them in salted water then made 5 of these. 3 with garlic, the garlic toasted up like candy. 1 with Rosemarry and one with taragon and garlic. They were all wonderful. The outside gets all crispy and wonderful and the inside is still all soft and great. These are so good. I can't imagine anyone not loving them. Get your oven hot, pull out some fresh garlic and herbs and go for it. The skin pieces that kinda fell off the potatoe crisped up like chips. Everything about these was awesome.

I can't stop thinking of Little House on the Prairie now.....:laughup:

Those do look very good and easy!!!! Nice pictures....

I have NEVER put a potato down, or any vegetable on a baking sheet w/o lining it with aluminum foil, she didn't do that. Am I the only one who does that?

RANCH DRESSING:shootself:
NEVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

That salad needed to be on a seperate plate, and blue cheese dressing;)

Thanks for the site jag, I'll look it over. I had never heard of it until now.

Nope. We do that all the time. And meats too, when cooked on a sheet pan. Just for easy clean-up.

I put foil on the baking pans for EVERYTHING. It's amazing how stained they get anyway (mostly from pouring marinade onto fish, etc).

That's what I meant, I always use an aluminum (tin...HAHA) foil liner....

I made some of these with dinner tonight. The red potato skins get very crispy. I just used salt and pepper to season them and they were very good, but I might try some fresh thyme out of the herb garden next time. One problem was the potatoes I used were a little too big and broke up slightly. That didn't affect the taste!
