💬 Reviews (These were one of the sides I made for dinner last night. Not one bite was left over after dinner! I used a yellow pepper instead of green, baby yukon gold potatoes (tiny enough that I only cut them in half instead of quarters), 5 cloves of sliced garlic (Mom panicked when she thought I was going to add 10 whole cloves to one recipe, and I couldn't convince her it was going to be okay), and I used the basil paste in a tube rather than the dried basil. I think I ended up cooking them for about 45 minutes instead of the suggested 30, but it wasn't a big deal because other components of the meal were still cooking after the 30 minutes anyhow. We make roasted baby potatoes a lot as it is, but the extra veggies in this recipe add great flavor. Thanks for posting!)

this is lovely to serve on the holiday table along side of a turkey or a ham...and it is so easy to make...if desired, you could add some seedless red grapes to the salad if desired...this recipe is enough for four people, so double or triple if you are having alot of guests for dinner.

these are wonderfully crisp cookies that are so tasty, they need no icing. however, you can add a butter cream frosting if you want decorated cookies. haven't made these this year yet, so yield is an estimate (can change according to size of cookie cutter used). original recipe from parents magazine.

this was my grandmother's recipe. this recipe has been made in our family for at least the past 85 years. she made it in november every year for a christmas treat. she claimed that the longer it chilled in the refrigerator the better it got. last year when i made it i was still eating it in january because i made so much of it. i have a copy of the recipe that is in her handwriting and am so afraid of losing it that i decided to post it here. there is one other recipe posted that is similar but slightly different. i contacted the recipezaar member who submitted it and received her permission to post this special family version. it is very tasty and is good to have on hand for unexpected guests. cooking time is cooling time.

💬 Reviews (I had to cook my potatoes longer, too, but I think that had to do with my using twice as many potatoes as the recipe called for. I used all 14 cloves in a whole (small) head of garlic, and I'd use more next time--I really love the bite of potato and roasted garlic... mmmm... may try this again with yukon golds (what we usually keep on hand). thanks!)
