Easy Dinners: Leg of Lamb

I cannot stand Sandra Lee, but sometimes a semi-homemade meal can hit the spot. I was in the mood for lamb but didn't plan ahead, marinate, etc. Luckily, Trader Joes has the Seasoned Butterflied Boneless Leg of Lamb. (Around $12 for a little over 2 lbs) It was about 15 minutes of prep time -- all I had to do was throw the lamb in a Pyrex, cut up some Yukon Gold Potatoes and season them with olive oil, rosemary, thyme, and kosher salt.

I put the lamb in the oven at 475 degrees for 10 minutes, then flipped it over and cooked for another 10 minutes. Then I lowered the oven to 325 degrees and put the potatos in. About 35 minutes later it was ready. I let the lamb sit for about 10 minutes, then plated everything along with some packaged salad with ginger dressing. All in all, a reasonably quick and pretty tasty meal.
