Roasted New Red Potatoes

Roasted vegetables are probably something pretty, simple and basic to most people, but many of the vegetables in our house tend to come from a bag in the freezer. I was looking for easy and healthy fresh vegetable recipes and came across this. My husband and I love it! The kids, not so much. My four year-old son especially hates it when it has grass (rosemary) on it. I'm not a big fan of rosemary either so I usually use thyme, but he still doesn't like that. Oh well, maybe someday.
