Lemon Roasted Potatoes

Submitted by MollyJ

"This is a great recipe from Mimi's Cyber-kitchen, posted by jenv71. This is a wonderful, easy recipe and tastes WOW! I often cut the potatoes into slices since they tend to roast faster. The dressing is best added right before you serve and will taste fine, as she indicates, even if the potatoes have cooled."

YUMMO! I followed your directions to a tee and everyone loved these. I didn't have any leftovers to try cool but I am sure they would be delicious. Definately putting this in my rotation. Next time I might sprinkle some garlic powder on the potatoes before baking for even more flavor (love garlic). Served with recipe#173985#173985, recipe#392723#392723 and zucchini. Thank you for a wonderful recipe. Made for SPRING PAC 2010.

I made it with russets instead of reds and it is now my go-to recipe for roasted potatoes.
