  • 2 pounds russet potatoes scrubbed and chunked
  • 6 Tbsp pesto
  • ¼ cup parmesan cheese
  • 1 ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 475°. Spray a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Scrub the potatoes and pat dry. Cut them into small cubes.
  • Combine potato cubes, pesto, parmesan, and salt in a large bowl. Stir until all pieces are coated.
  • Spread potatoes in a single layer on the prepared pan.
  • Bake at 475° for 40-50 minutes, stirring every 15-20 minutes. Potatoes should be browned and crispy on the outside.

Notes

-If you are using fine-grain salt instead of kosher salt, you will only need a teaspoon.
