DIRECTIONS

  • Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees
  • Wash & cut potatoes (peel before cutting if that is your preference). I recommend dicing the potatoes into chunks about the size of the end of your thumb.-Drizzle olive oil on potatoes and mix with your hands to evenly coat
  • Mix together the dry ingredients in a separate bowl
  • Sprinkle dry ingredients over potatoes and toss or mix with hands till evenly coated
  • Bake potatoes in a pan with edges (I use a sheet cake pan). Cook for 20 minutes, stir/turn the potatoes, then cook for an additional 10-20 minutes or until potatoes are tender and can be easily broken apart with a fork
  • If making these the night before, let cool then cover with aluminum foil and store in the refrigerator. Re-heat for 10-15 minutes at 400 degrees, or until thoroughly warmed
