FAMILY FAVORITE FRIDAY

Today I'm posting two tasty sides that are sure to be a family favorite. Potatoes are always popular in almost any form but broccoli, not so much. However this recipe might just be yummy enough to please even the pickiest non-broccoli eater.

ROASTED RANCH POTATOES
1(3lb.) bag red potatoes, quartered
2 tbsp. olive oil
2 tsp. garlic salt
2 tsp. dried parsley
1 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp. dried dill
Preheat oven to 400. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
In a large bowl, toss together potatoes and remaining ingredients until combined. Arrange potatoes in a single layer on a prepared pan.
Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
*** If you are running low on spices you can use a  1 ounce packet of ranch dressing mix in place of the herbs for the potatoes.

GARLICKY BROCCOLI
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 head broccoli, cut into florets
1 tbsp. bottled minced garlic
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper
1/4 c. water
2 tbsp. soy sauce
In a large skillet. heat oil over medium-high heat. Add broccoli, garlic, and crushed red pepper; cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Add 1/4 c. water and soy sauce; cover and cook for 3 minutes or until crisp-tender.
