Thanks to reader Susie for today's food funny.
There's a guy with a Doberman Pinscher and a guy with a Chihuahua out
walking their dogs. The guy with the Doberman Pinscher says to the
guy with a Chihuahua, "Let's go over to that restaurant and get
something to eat." The guy with the Chihuahua says, "We can't go in
there. We've got dogs with us." The guy with the Doberman Pinscher
says, "Just follow my lead."
They walk over to the restaurant, the guy with the Doberman Pinscher
puts on a pair of dark glasses, and he starts to walk in. A guy at
the door says, "Sorry, mac, no pets allowed." The guy with the
Doberman Pinscher says, "You don't understand. This is my seeing-eye
dog." The guy at the door says, "A Doberman Pinscher?" He says,
"Yes, they're using them now, they're very good." The guy at the door
says, "Come on in."
The guy with the Chihuahua figures, "What the heck," so he puts on
pair of dark glasses and starts to walk in. The guy at the door says,
"Sorry, pal, no pets allowed." The guy with the Chihuahua says, "You
don't understand. This is my seeing-eye dog." The guy at the door
says, "A Chihuahua?" The guy with the Chihuahua says, "You mean they
gave me a Chihuahua?"
::::::::::::::::::::::::::: TODAY'S RECIPE ::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Our "Quick and Easy" week continues with one of the easiest potato
recipes you'll ever find. If you are a garlic lover it will also be
one of your favorites, proving once again that sometimes simpler is
better.
Roasted Potatoes and Garlic
2 lb (1 kg) small new potatoes, washed and dried
8 to 12 cloves garlic (or more to taste), peeled
3 Tbs (45 ml) olive oil
1 tsp (5 ml) fresh rosemary, finely chopped
OR 2 tsp (10 ml) dried rosemary, crushed
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Make sure the potatoes are completely dry, and combine all ingredients
in a large bowl. Toss gently to thoroughly coat the potatoes and
garlic with the oil and seasonings. Place the mixture on a baking
sheet and roast in a preheated 350F (180C) oven for 30 to 45 minutes,
until the potatoes are lightly browned and tender. Shake the baking
sheet occasionally to turn the potatoes and assure uniform browning.
Serves 4 to 6.
