no fries with that

...because I prefer oven roasted potatoes.

Rustic Oven Roasted Potatoes

Ingredients:
2 lbs. potatoes (about 4 large)
2 tbs. olive oil
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Directions:
Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees [F].
Wash the potatoes thoroughly because the skin will be kept on. Cut the potatoes into the desired size you want but make sure to keep them relatively similar in shape so they have the same cooking time. Toss them in oil and seasonings. Spread them evenly on a greased baking sheet and keep them in the oven for 25-30 minutes. To ensure that the potatoes cook thoroughly and don't burn on one side, give them a quick toss occasionally.
This makes an excellent side dish on its own or a friendly component in a breakfast burrito (that's where I put mine).
