Ingredients

  • 1 lbs Lemon & Garden Herb Microwave Ready Little Potatoes*
  • 1 lbs asparagus (about 1 bunch)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with non-stick paper or tin foil and preheat oven or grill to 400° F.

  2. Remove seasoning pack from potatoes and add olive oil, asparagus and seasoning to potatoes**. Place only potatoes on prepared baking sheet (reserve asparagus).

  3. Place potatoes in oven and roast for 25 minutes. Carefully remove baking sheet from oven and add asparagus to the pan. Bake for another 8-10 minutes or until asparagus is still bright green, but tender and potatoes are also tender on the inside and crispy on the exterior.

  4. Serve immediately with lemon slices as garnish if desired.

  5. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.

Recipe Notes

*  while I used the Lemon & Garden Herb Microwave Ready Little Potatoes from The Little Potato Company for a Spring-focused dish, any of the microwave or oven/grill Creamer potatoes will work well (such as Onion & Chive or Garlic Parsley).

** see notes in blog post above to cut down on cooking time by utilizing the microwave.
