HOW TO MAKE ROASTED RED POTATOES
It’s easy. Cut your red potatoes in quarters (you can do halves if you like bigger pieces!) and toss them in olive oil, garlic, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Place the coated red potatoes in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet and roast in the oven for 35 minutes. You can sprinkle the potatoes with parsley but I skip that step because the green freaks out the kids.
ROASTED POTATOES FLAVOR VARIATIONS
Looking to change the recipe up a little to suit your family’s taste? Here are some delicious options below:
- Swap out the Italian seasoning for ranch seasoning to give these potatoes a great kick. (You can find the ranch seasoning packets in the salad dressing aisle at your local grocery store.)
- Swap out the red potatoes for Yukon gold potatoes.
- Swap out the parsley for chopped basil.
- Add more cheese at the end of roasting. Sprinkle 1 cup of mozzarella or cheddar cheese on top for the last 5-10 minutes of roasting.
- Add bacon. Bacon makes everything yummier.
