What Ingredients are in Garlic Roasted Red Potatoes?

Tender potatoes? Check! Simple ingredients? Check! This is all you need for this easy weeknight meal:

• Red Potatoes: These waxy potatoes are the stars of our show. Baby red potatoes would also work great!
• Salted Butter: It gives the potatoes that rich, buttery flavor we all crave.
• Garlic: Fresh garlic cloves for that punchy and irresistible garlic taste.
• Salt: Kosher salt works best to draw out all the other flavors.
• Parmesan Cheese: Opt for the shredded type, not powdered. So savory!

Pro Tip:

• I don’t prefer russet potatoes or yukon gold potatoes for this recipes. The red potatoes taste better with the parmesan.

Yes, you absolutely can! 

Once cooled to room temperature, place them in an airtight container, where they’ll last for a few months in the freezer.

Don’t forget to write “Roasted Potatoes” and the date on the package so you don’t forget it in the freezer.

How to Reheat Roasted Potatoes

When it’s time to enjoy your roasted potatoes, spread them out on a baking sheet and warm them up in a hot oven. 

This helps them keep their crispy edges.

I don’t recommend reheating them in the microwave but you can if you want. The skin will just be softer than in the oven.
