January 5 Meal: I Love This Salad

Herb-Crusted Rack of Lamb

I don't think I've seen a shorter recipe for meat than this.  Oil-up the lamb and sprinkle with rosemary and thyme.  Mix up breadcrumbs, butter, garlic, and mint.  Press the breadcrumb mixture onto the lamb.  Last, just roast the meat.  Not bad, but rack of lamb is not my favorite piece of lamb.

Roasted Potatoes with Fresh Herbs

Another easy one for the night.  Little fingerling potatoes cut in half, then mixed with oil, garlic, parsley, thyme, and rosemary.  Roast for a while and you have a great little side dish.

Avacado-Goat Cheese Salad with Lime Dressing

Yum!  Goat cheese and Avocado... with lime dressing!  An interesting addition to this salad was jicama. I've come to describe jicama as a cross between a radish and an apple.  The annoying part is that they are covered in wax when you get them at the grocery store, so you cut a bunch off trying to get to the good stuff.  That's it, avocado, goat cheese, and jicama on mixed greens.  The dressing is just lime juice and oil.
