About

It’s getting tough these days to come up with new ways to cook those same old sides, but I must admit this dish turned out well. I skipped the russet potatoes in favor of colorful Yukon gold (skin on of course), then added asparagus and a light and creamy blue cheese vinaigrette.

Colorful, creamy and delicious!
