First off, just a reminder: Don’t forget to enter the awesome Larabar Giveaway! 🙂
And now onto the roasting (and seeing how it was 101 degrees here in Omaha today, I would say this is quite fitting).
I am officially a veggie roasting fool. I am a firm believer that nearly every vegetable tastes even more amazing when it has been roasted. I now find myself trying, consistently eating, and loving vegetables that I never thought I would like simply because they have been roasted. Some of my favorite vegetables to roast include: green beans, radishes, asparagus, brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes, broccoli and cauliflower. Pretty much any vegetable in roasted form is delicious, though!
It has been quite awhile since I have dedicated a post solely to one vegetable, but let’s get back into it with another “Roasted Part *” post, featuring…
…”B” Size Potatoes!
Roasted Potato Wedges
Servings: 1 to 2
Ingredients
3 to 4 “B” size potatoes, red or gold
olive oil cooking spray
sea salt
black pepper
garlic powder
onion powder
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.
2. Dice potatoes into one inch pieces. I always leave the skin on.
3. Place the potatoes onto the baking sheet. Spray the potatoes with cooking spray and sprinkle with seasonings.
4. Roast the potatoes for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and shake the baking sheet to rotate the potatoes.
5. Cook the potatoes for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, depending on how crispy you like them.
I generally serve my roasted potatoes alongside ketchup and mustard, but choose whatever dipping sauce you like. Or, eat them plain!
These roasted potatoes make for the perfect side dish to any meal, especially sandwiches, but also make for a great breakfast accompaniment. Lately, I have been addicted to eating them alongside huge salads for lunch. Heck, I would even eat these for a snack! 😉
What is your current favorite vegetable to roast?

I just made a big batch of roasted veggies too .. yummy! 🙂
Yum! It doesn’t get much better than that!!
Roasted potatoes like this are the best! Even leftover, cold out of the fridge. I usually add a little dried mustard powder to my spice mix as well. As for other roasted vegetables, you haven’t had asparagus until you’ve roasted it, drizzled with a little garlic oil and salt… 🙂
The addition of dried mustard powder sounds awesome. I will have to try that!
I pretty much like any vegetable roasted – especially potatoes! But, the favorite would probably have to be brussel sprouts!
Yum! Roasted brussel sprouts are most definitely amazing!
My fav vegetable to roast is hands down sweet potatoes. I also love roasted carrots- and you are going to think this is weird but roasted raisins are SOOO good!
Roasted sweet potatoes are amazing! And I will have to try roasted raisins. I like roasted grapes, so I think that I would like that!
My favorite roasted veggie is definitely cauliflower! I’ve even managed to convince my picky 5-year-old that they’re just like french fries. 🙂
Nice job! 😉 One of the only ways that I even like cauliflower is when it is roasted.
I love anything that is potato! These look so yummy and now I want them. If only you could deliver to my house…
But the best part is that they are SO easy to make, so you don’t even need me to make them for you! 😉
Will be making these along with dinner tonight 🙂 🙂
Awesome!! I hope you loved them :).
You do roast some delicious looking food girl! I love roasting sweet potatoes in Coconut oil. Or Kabocha squash, or butternut squash. Lately though I’ve been all about roasted cabbage with balsamic. Yum!
I have some leftover cabbage in my fridge right now…I will have to give that a try!
Oh gosh, I love ALL roasted vegetables! It’s impossible to pick just one favorite, but a few of my go-to’s include: sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, zucchini, onions, and butternut squash. I haven’t roasted white potatoes in ages, but I ate some amazing roasted baby reds at brunch on Sunday, and enjoyed them so much, I may try recreating them at home. Or, even better—I’ll make your recipe! 🙂
I roasted butternut squash for the first time the other day. Let’s just say…that is definitely going to be happening more often!
These sound like healthy hash browns! Yum!
Yes, they totally reminded me of breakfast potatoes!
I LOVE roasted veggies and these I know I will LOVE!! I would totally eat them with a savory greek yogurt dip, hmm!
I am a fan of roasted sweet potatoes and roasted butternut squash. So good.
A savory Greek yogurt dip sounds amazing. Let me know if you try it out!
Gotta love potato wedges 🙂
There is something about roasted potato that just rules.
You are SO right!
What are “B” sized potatoes? Smaller ones? I feel silly not knowing.
I agree–roasted veggies is where it’s at!! Love them!
Yes, they are the smaller potatoes. That is what they refer to them at the grocery store, but maybe it is just a Midwest thing.
Yum this looks good! I love roasting sweet potato and pumpkin but for something different broccoli and cauliflower are good too!
Roasted pumpkin sounds amazing. I am going to have to try that this Fall.
I’m new to this whole roasting thing… why did I wait so long??! My currently favorite veggie to roast is Brussels sprouts – so so good! I could eat way too many of the little green beauties if they are cooking this way 🙂
Me too! Brussel sprouts are absolutely fantastic, especially roasted :).
So simple but yet look great! I don’t know why but I never think to roast anything, I need to start!
Oh my goodness, yes you do! Roasted vegetables are amazing!
I love potato wedges! Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome! Simple, but delicious :).
I’ve been roasting a lot lately, most recently tomatoes! I used them in soup and they were sooo good!
That sounds awesome. Roasted tomatoes are amazing, but adding them to soups is an even better idea!
I 100% agree with you, roasted veggies are the absolute best! I’ve never though to roast radishes before, but I trust you, so that is happening!
Roasted radishes are amazing! Let me know if you try them!
These sound amazing. Roasted veggies FTW all the time! 🙂 I’m checking out that radish recipe ASAP, wooooo!
They are awesome. It sounds weird, but I REALLY like them roasted.
Roasted potatoes are the best!
They sure are! 🙂
Yessss, you think just like me. I seriously roast everything I can get my hands onto. Just so good!
Yeah, I do not think that there is a veggie that wouldn’t be good roasted! 😉
I feel same way about roasted veggies!
They are the best! 🙂
Potatoes and Brussels sprouts are my TOP two roasters!!! Potatoes are always a hit though.
Ahh, yes..those are definitely two of my favorites! Anyone who thinks that they don’t like brussel sprouts definitely has not tried them roasted!
yummy, making me crave potatoes!
Sorry! 😉
I totally agree with you on the roasted veggies. I don’t think there’s a vegetable I don’t like, especially roasted! The potatoes look awesome. Currently, I’m loving roasted Brussels! So good!
Ahh, roasted brussel sprouts are amazing! Def in my top 5!
potato wedges are so stinking good. have you ever tried seasoning them with ranch seasoning? oh myyy. <3
xo.
I have not, but that sounds AMAZING! I will definitely be trying that.
I, too, am a veggie-roasting fool! 😉
And proud of it, I’m sure! 😉
“potatoes” + “roasted” = heaven!
You had better believe it!
101 degrees?! Yikes! Did you roast them outside? They look delish!
Haha, I probably could have!! 😉
I love roasted veggies! I think my current favorites are beets and sweet potatoes
I have never had a roasted beet..I’ll have to give that a try!
I love, love, love red skin potatoes. Especially when I put some rosemary on them with EVOO!
I keep hearing that putting rosemary on them is good. I will have to try that!
yum yum yum! I love the looks of these potatoes, the size of them makes them look even more delicious! My favorite vegetable to roast is cauliflower. I could(and have) eaten the entire head in one sitting!
Roasting cauliflower is about the only way that I will eat it…or in pizza crust!
So glad that I just got potatoes because I am totally going to make this recipe. I love wedges. Delicious.
I hope you enjoy them!
I slice potatoes really thin and then roast them and broil for just a few minutes at the end! They crisp up nice. Potatoes are so versatile.
That sounds amazing! It would be like making homemade potato chips!
It’s looking different and amazing and trust me I’m gonna share this with everyone. You know what cooking a food is my favorite part time and I love cooking and specially when I try something like this.. Thanks. 🙂
You are welcome! I hope you enjoy it!
Roasted veggies are the BEST! Once I figured out how to do it, I love any veggie roasted now. My favorite is brussel sprouts and carrots. I make roasted carrots by putting them in a bag (cut up) with some olive oil and garlic. I let it soak for a day, then cook it. AMAZING!
I love roasted carrots, too!! Your idea to marinate them sounds awesome :).
oh my goodness, those potatoes look too good! thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome! I hope you enjoy them! 🙂
we roast potatoes more than i’d care to admit. so much better for you then french fries! if you’re ever at trader joes, buy a jar of 21 seasoning salute (no salt, but AMAZING on roast potatoes). also, if you want amazingly crispy fries, check out a post on annie’s eats- her method of soaking potatoes in ice water is time consuming but makes roasted potatoes even better!
I actually have some 21 seasoning salute in my cupboard right now. I will have to try that out!
These tasty looking taters are right up my alley!;)
