Honey Roasted Red Potatoes

Recently, I bought a 10 pound bag of small red potatoes.  I bought them because it was much cheaper to go to Costco and get the larger bag for $5.99 than go to Food Lion and get 6 potatoes for $3.99.  I am now posting my third recipe that I have used them for.  I got them originally for the Ham and Potato Soup (that's Ham and Potatoe Soup for Dan Quayle).  I also used them in the Garlic Mashed Potatoes.  I have enjoyed all three dishes.  Last night, I revisited the Honey-Rosemary Chicken and also paired with good old green beans.  The honey flavor was really nice in the two dishes.  Honey is a great way to add a glaze to your dishes.  It adds a touch of sweetness, but will never have the flavor to over-power your meal.  Be careful not to overcook the Honey Roasted Potatoes.  They are just perfect when you follow this recipe exactly.

Honey Roasted Potatoes
1 pound red potatoes, quartered
2 Tbs. diced onion
2 Tbs. butter, melted
1 Tbs. honey
1 tsp. dry mustard
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Lightly coat an 11x7 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.  Place potatoes in a single layer in prepared dish, and top with onion. In a small bowl, combine melted butter, honey, mustard, salt and pepper; drizzle over potatoes and onion. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until tender, stirring halfway through the cooking time.
