Roasted potatoes

 Ok,  not as healthy but good!

I like the little red or gold potatoes that you buy in bags.  Instead of olive oil, toss them on mayonnaise.  Then season with whatever you like.  I personally like salt,  pepper and garlic.  Sometimes I add parmesean cheese.  Roast at 425 till they are fork tender.

Easy Oven Baked Ribs

Slab of ribs

Mustard 

Your favorite rub

Your favorite BBQ sauce 

Rise ribs and pat dry.  Remove the membrane on the back side.  Apply Mustard as a binder.  Add a generous amount of rub.  Flip over and do the same on the other side.  Wrap in aluminin foil.  Make sure you seal it up.  Place on a baking sheet and bake at 275 degrees for 21/2 to 3 hours.  Apply your favorite BBQ sauce.  Leave the aluminum foil open and cook under a low broiler for 3-5 minutes to let the BBQ sauce caramelized.  They will literally fall off the bones.  So good and SO easy.
