Roasted lamb with root vegetables

I realized I have not really put up many lamb recipes.This was like an OMG moment because I love lamb its such a tender juicy piece  a of meat so I am gonna try to put up a few. So lets stop talking about other lamb recipes and lets talk about this one. So there is like a ton of vegetables on the bottom including potatos, carrots, yam, beets, and carrots.So the veggies are cooked with some simple salt and pepper which is awesome because its easy, simple, and delicious.Don't y'all love that? When something is so good but so easy.I love it.So how about we talk about the star of this dish, the Lamb.Lamb,the lamb,THE LAMB is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So the lamb is cooked with the herbs and honey with powders like garlic powder.Its the most flavorful lamb I have ever had.There is so much flavor!!!Warning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is a  spicy aspect.Red pepper flakes.Not much just a little but a little can do a lot.I remember once I made lamb and there were like 50 ingredients and you had to make like three rubs and there was so much prep then you had a sauce with garlic and rosemary which took a while and roasted carrots and OMG I was working for so long.It took me hours and I mean hours.So when I looked for a recipe there were a few things I had in mine like not to long,not to hard,Fresh and good flavors.Anyway so earlier I had told you about the red pepper flakes but there is something else to but its not spicy but sweet.HONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OMG I love honey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The honey dosen't over power any thing but still has a lot of flavor.So I was reading my e-mails the other day and I was  looking at some comments for my recipes and I was looking at my folllowers blogs and I liked how they said how many servings. Well this makes 10  servings.I know its kinda a lot but Including me I have 5 people in my family and we finished it in one dinner.So I g2g because I am going to go get my basement ready cause I have people staying over at my house so Bye!!!!!!!!!!!Enjoy your Delightful Delicious Dinner.
