This recipe happened one night because I was bored with the usual roasted potatoes I’d been making lately. We really likes potatoes and how great are they with some simple salt, pepper and thyme?! While they can be amazing simply prepared, I *try* to keep things flavorful and mix up the way I cook with them.
I was looking to give the potatoes some big flavors, so decided to cut them into rounds and build right on top.
Slice potatoes to 1/2″ thick rounds.
Brush with olive oil, sprinkle with fresh thyme, salt & pepper.
Use parchment paper to line the pan for easy clean up!
Roast in 400 degree oven for 45-60 minutes.
Mine cooked a total of 55 minutes.
Top roasted potatoes with 1 tsp each of sun-dried tomato pesto and trimmed spinach leaves.
Pop back into the oven for 5 minutes until pesto and spinach are hot.
Top with fresh grated parmesan and enjoy hot!
These potatoes are completely addicting and have. it. all.
There is a bit of a crunch on the edges of the creamy roasted potatoes.
There is bright flavor from the sun-dried tomatoes.
Freshness from the spinach.
Saltiness from the cheese.
I dare you not to try them tonight!!
