3 tablespoons olive oil

Blue Cheese Dressing:

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 (5-ounce) container crumbled blue cheese
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons prepared horseradish

Directions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a large shallow roasting pan with non-stick aluminum foil.

In a large bowl, combine potatoes, olive oil, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, tossing gently to coat. Arrange potatoes in a single layer on prepared pan. Bake for 35 minutes, until potatoes are tender and lightly browned, stirring occasionally. Remove from oven and cool.

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add onions; cover and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover and add vinegar. Stir until vinegar evaporates, about 1 to 2 minutes.
