What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Bright Ideas: Yukon Gold Potato Medley! For my friends who like their veggies, and prefer a meatless diet, here’s a quick way to combine potatoes, carrots, and onions into a very filling meal. It has herbs to enhance flavor, and delicious butter to combat hunger pangs. Plus, butter makes everything taste drool-worthy. Amirite? Did I ever tell you, every time I refill the butter dish, if there is even a sliver of butter in the wrapper, I swipe it across my finger and slip it into my mouth? True confessions. After all, I import the butter from France, so I’m not going to waste one dab.
YUKON GOLD POTATO MEDLEY
Ingredients:
3 Yukon Gold potatoes, skin on and quartered
16-ounce jar Pearl onions, drained
1 pound baby carrots, whole
2 cups vegetable broth
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon Italian herbs
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions:
Combine potatoes, pearl onions, and baby carrots in a 4-quart pan. Cover with vegetable broth. Add sea salt. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cook for 20 minutes. Drain the vegetables in a colander. Warm butter in the pan over medium heat. Add turmeric, Italian herbs, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix thoroughly. Return the potato medley to the pan. Mix well to coat. Transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with fresh celery leaves.
Tasty tasty.

Hey, a highly fertile blond lady goes to her OBN and asks for the best, guaranteed birth control method. He recommends to drink tea.
“Before or after?” asks the lady.
“Instead,” replies the doc.
