Dinner Last Night: Roasted Potatoes with Mushrooms & Taleggio Cheese

Dinner last night was Roasted Potatoes with Mushrooms and Melted Taleggio Cheese. After starting the cooking process I realized this dish is probably meant as a side, but having little else in my fridge - if was our entree!

This was my first time working with Taleggio cheese. A little harder to find (but found it at PCC, a natural market), this Italian cheese has a consistency similar to brie, and melts really well. Overall, I was very pleased with the turnout of the meal. The flavors were big and bold, and cheese really complimented the crisp potatoes and woodsy mushrooms. Definitely a dish I would bring as an elegant side to a dinner party.
