Roasted Potato Corn Salad

September 17, 2009

This is a great side dish and a great way to use up any leftover corn or potatoes. I found this is a recent Rachael Ray Magazine. It calls for onion and jalapenos, but I decided to leave those out. I also added in some honey to balance out the flavors and acidity, providing a [...]
