Fingerling potatoes are very rich and flavorful. I'd call the flavor earthy and buttery. In this recipe, we use our favorite method to prepare potatoes; roasted with fresh herbs and flavor vegetables. Rosemary, garlic and sauteed onions are the sidekicks to bring out even more flavor.

There are several varieties of fingerling potatoes that are rich in Vitamin C and Potassium. They include Purple Peruvian, French Fingerling, Ruby Crescent, and the Russian Banana varieties. Fingerlings are available all year round with a peak season in the late spring and early summer. They're a bit more pricey than your average spud, but totally worth it.

This Tri-Color Roasted Rosemary Potatoes recipe is best in the cooler months if you're looking to conserve electricity. Fingerlings can be prepared in a number of ways; baked, boiled, roasted or even grilled.

They really dress up your dinner plate and make a great holiday dish. Serve them along side your favorite protein, whether it be your holiday ham or turkey, pork tenderloin or even chicken drumsticks for an every day meal.

For Meatless Monday, you can serve these fingerlings with your favorite fish. Salmon is my recommendation.
