3 years ago

These potatoes are really easy to make,

and you can pair them with grilled chicken,

steak, fish or BBQ

We enjoyed them with ribs over Memorial Day weekend

Simple to prepare, incredibly tasty, and dinner party worthy!

If you’re not a fan of gorgonzola or bleu cheese,

you can sub Parmesan, Manchego, or white cheddar cheese

Roasted red potatoes are a staple at my house

Once they are cut into smaller pieces

pile them onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet

drizzle them generously with olive oil,

and season with salt, garlic powder and pepper

Toss them around to coat with oil and seasonings

Spread them into an even layer

roast in a 400 degree oven for 40 minutes or until potatoes are golden,

crisp on the outside and soft on the inside

You could also cook them in a foil pan on your grill,

adjusting the cooking time to your grill temperature

When potatoes are done,

sprinkle them with crumbled or shredded cheese and rosemary

Return to oven for 5 minutes to melt cheese

You can leave part of the potatoes on one end of the pan plain

for the children or picky eaters

Heaven on a plate!
