Quick prep time, easy, and tasty make for the 5 stars. With two boys I need all of the potato recipes I can find (bottomless pits) and this one has plenty of flavor without adding butter so the wife and I like these to.

this is a family favorite that i have been making for years, but your recipe includes garlic, which was a really nice addition. i love the rosemary on the roasted new potatoes and i use kosher salt and black pepper. i roasted for 20 mins at 450, turned and cooked 20 minutes more. i used fresh ground sea salt and pepper blend to season when i removed them from the oven, wonderfulside here!
