Ingredients
- 2 lbs. potatoes, washed and dried (approx. 4 - 6 potatoes)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (optional)
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasonings
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper, to taste
- pinch of cayenne (optional)
- fresh parsley or herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- If you prefer, peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized chunks. Or keep the peels on and cut them into chunks.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced potatoes with olive oil, dried oregano, dried thyme, dried rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.
- Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with foil and put in preheated oven and roast for 15 - 20 minutes.
- Take off foil and flip and stir potatoes. Put uncovered tray back in the oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges. Be sure to flip the potatoes halfway through the cooking time for even browning.
- Once roasted, remove the potatoes from the oven. Garnish with fresh parsley or herbs, if desired. Serve warm.
