Roasting
Empty shelves of my refrigerator are staring me in the face, so raiding the refrigerator and praying for inspiration is my mantra today. <br /> <br />Now this may be a terrible omen to begin my first submission to Amanda & Merrill's Food52 with a post rooted in frugality but since you are asking for a 'pennies on the dollar' kinda dish, this one in my opinion has as good a chance as any. So with a deep breath, here we go! <br /> <br />My gray cells are obviously firing away as I try to assimilate some remnants of a meal as my eyes were furiously scanning the meagre contents inside, the door perched open with my foot and hands pulling out whatever is in the way. <br /> <br />First I pulled out the bagels - my kids do love bagels and then I see one lonesome red potato with more 'eyes' than an alien in a star wars film (which meant it had to be used up), some chives and thyme at the bottom of the crisper, followed by an almost used up carton of sour cream, an itty bitty wedge of goat cheese and some fresh garlic. <br /> <br />Now though I don't really have a plan per se, is but I figure as long as I add some caramelized red onions, the sucker's gotta taste good! I mean let's face it ....caramelized onions have saved the day more times than I care to remember! <br /> <br />So here goes, toasted bagels, topped with some yummy sauteed onions, topped with roasted red potatoes tossed in with some olive oil and thyme then grilled and served with some sour cream, goat cheese & chives crème fraîche. <br /> <br />Frugalite at it's best! <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
