Rosemary Lemon Roasted Turkey and Vegetables

I tweaked one of my niece's, Valerie Kukahiko, reicpes.

Whole Turkey Breast, remove as much fat and skin as possible
2-3 medium red potatoes, diced into about 1" pieces
1/2 onion, sliced
1 lemon, sliced

Marinade:
5 TBSP EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)
4 cloves minced garlic
2 tsp dried rosemary
1 tsp kosher salt 1/2 tsp pepper

I made the marinade and then tossed my veggies (the recipe called for fresh green beans, but I forgot to add them) in it.  Then I poured them into my crockpot, leaving some of the marinade out for the turkey.  I placed the turkey on top and used my hands to rub the rest of the marinade into the top of the turkey.  I also stuffed some of the veggies and marinade into the cavity of the turkey.  I set the crockpot for high and let it cook for 4 hours.  I didn't like how it looked after 4 hours, so I transferred it to the oven at 450 degrees for about 30 minutes.  It was delicious.  Even my 12 and 9 year old loved it!!!
