NEW POTATOES WITH ONIONS


Happy Monday!!   Today’s recipe is extremely simple---but I think sometimes we forget that the “ordinary” dishes we serve our families are the very ones that they request over and over again.   Enjoy!!

New (red) potatoes—or potatoes of your choice
Sweet  onions
Kosher Salt

Instructions:
*Spray a square pyrex baking dish with PAM  (a larger dish may be used if you need to make more).
*Wash and scrub potatoes with a vegetable brush, removing any dirt
*Leave red skin on potatoes
*Using a paring knife, remove any blemishes
*Cut each potato into quarters (or large bite-sized pieces) and place in prepared baking dish
*Peel and cut onion into large bite-sized pieces and place in prepared baking dish.
*Fill baking dish with potatoes and onions and then sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper
