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.
