Roasted Barbecue Potatoes - Mmmm!

This is a recipe I just tried out about a week ago, and it is absolutely heavenly - better than I thought it would be before I made it! Try it out - you'll make it one of your regular weekly side dishes.

4 medium red potatoes, cut into 3/4 inch cubes
1 tablespoon vegetable oil or olive oil
2 tablespoons McCormick Grill Mates Barbecue Seasoning, or other brand
1 large onion, peeled, cut into thin wedges

Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, toss potatoes with oil. Add barbecue seasoning and toss again to coat. Place potatoes on cookie sheet and spread onion wedges on top. Bake in oven for 30-40 minutes.

This dish is great with baked or bbq chicken, hamburger steaks, pork chops or just about anything else you can think of!

Delicious & Easy! One Pot Country Dinner

I have decided that since we do alot of cooking at my house, I am going to start including recipes here! We do some pretty good country cooking, if I do say so myself:) Here we go with the first:

What you will need:

1 ham steak, or package of thick sliced ham
2-3 medium potatoes
1/2 head cabbage
2 yellow squash
1/2 white onion

Cut potatoes into 1/4" slices, such as you would use for au gratin or scalloped potatoes. Do the same with the squash. Slice the onion thinly and tear up 1/2 head of cabbage into whatever size pieces you like.

In large pot with about 1 inch of water in the bottom, start layering potatoes, onion, squash, cabbage then repeat until you have used all ingredients. Lay ham steak or pieces over top of entire mixture, cover with lid and boil on med-high for about 15 or 20 minutes. You're done!

We like to sprinkle a little Cavenders greek seasoning between each layer, but that is totally up to you. The ham flavor seeps into all of the veggies during cooking, and it is absolutely delicious (and super easy!) Add some cornbread, and you've got the perfect country supper in no time!
