Ingredients
- 6 medium Russet potatoes
- 3/4 cup pesto sauce we use our homemade pesto or get the big jar at Costco
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
- Scrub (but don't peel) potatoes and cut into large cubes then place all the pieces in a large plastic bag.
- Add about 3/4 cup pesto sauce to the bag and shake it around until the pesto is coating all the potato pieces.
- Pour the contents of the bag out onto a cookie sheet. Arrange the potatoes so they are laying flat then sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
- Bake at 450 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes, or until they begin to look lightly toasted.
- Serve as a side dish to any meal.
Notes
- Roast or Grill:
- Store Leftovers
- Roasting: We usually throw these potatoes onto a sheet pan or baking sheet in the oven and roast them at 450 degrees for about 30 minutes. They're crisp, tender inside and perfectly flavorful roasted potatoes.

- Grilling: Sometimes in the summer, instead of cooking with the oven and heating up the house, we will just wrap these in foil and cook them over the grill. Just cook them over medium heat. They are ready to eat when you peel back some of the foil and potatoes are fork tender and break apart easily.

- For proper storage, make sure to drain the leftovers on parchment paper, and make sure they're cooled completely. Place them in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to five days.
