Second Go Around...

Hello,

I know it has been a while since I last posted, but don't worry I have been creating and actually jotting down the ingredients on most of my newest creations.
Today I thought I would revisit an item from my Thanksgiving menu which was the "Roasted Glazed Sweet Potatoes with Pineapples".  Why, you may ask?? Well I made them again and they were so good that I actually remembered to take a photo of them and wanted to share them with you guys just in case you wanted to make them for "Christmas".  They would go great with a nice roasted "Spiral Ham".  YUMMY, my mouth is watering already for it.

Tomorrow's The Big Day..

Hello,

Tomorrow is the big day!! I hope you are ready.  I am putting the final prepartions on my home and on my menu.  Today I will pare all the potatoes, make the macaroni and cheese, brine my turkey, and snip the fresh green beans.  If there is anything that you can make or prepare today to make tomorrow a smooth day should be done today.

ROASTED GLAZED SWEET POTATOES W/PINEAPPLES
SWEET POTATOES (PEELED & CUT)
VANILLA
BROWN SUGAR
SALT 
CINNAMON
BUTTER
FRESH PINEAPPLE
Cut the potatoes into chunks. Coat them with vanilla, melted butter, cinnamon (not to much), and salt.  Peel and core your fresh pineapple and cut into chunks about the size of the pineapple or a little smaller but not to much or they will burn.  Toss with the potatoes.  Roast all of your ingredients in a back dish until the potatoes are done.  They should have some brown coloring on them.  Stir every 5-10 minutes so your potatoes should be coated with the brown sugar glaze.  These are delicious I hope you enjoy!

Roasted Potatoes

Hello,

Sometimes when I am at work I want to come up with something NEW!!  This happened last night.  I needed a potato dish and it came to me.  I have no name for my newest creation, but they turned out better than I thought.  First I like to use red skinned potatoes whenever I want a roasted potato dish, but any potato will roast. 

It is always best to clean and cut your potatoes.  Nothing is worse than eating something that looks so delicious to get an unexpected "CRUNCH"....... dirt.  "YUCK!!"  So if you don't feel like cleaning your potatoes I would recommending stopping right now and go to a pasta link or even ordering out. 
Well it looks like you are willing to take the proper steps in preparing this dish so lets begin:
"Clean and dried potatoes"
INGREDIENTS:
LARGE RED SKIN POTATOES
OLIVE OIL
PAPRIKA, SALT & PEPPER
GARLIC (FRESH OR DRY)
ONION POWDER
CHEDDAR & MONTERREY JACK CHEESE MIX
CILANTRO & CHIVES
