Homemade Home fries

I am a huge hash brown, breakfast potato fan!  If I could, I would have them at every meal, whether it be for breakfast or not. 

I make these for the family often when we do breakfast for dinner.  Which is exactly what we did the other day!  Try these soon!  They're super easy to make! 

Ingredients:

- 4 or 5 potatoes, washed and cubed w/skins on
- Olive oil
-Seasoned Salt/Dried Parsley/Pepper

Directions:

1.  Preheat your oven to 400 degrees while you dice your potatoes and place them into a large bowl.

2.  Toss in your seasoning.  It looks like a lot of seasoning here, but there's a lot of potatoes and potatoes NEED seasoned!  Go by your preference here.  I think I used a good tablespoon of both pepper and parsley and about 2 or 3 tablespoons of the seasoned salt.

3.  Now pour in your oil.  You only need enough to coat the potatoes lightly, do not drown them.  If you add too much oil, the potatoes won't get as crispy.  Now stir your potatoes well and get all the seasoning and oil incorporated into the potatoes. 

4.  Toss the potatoes onto a sheet tray.  You do not need to spray the tray due to the oil on the potatoes.  Bake your potatoes for 30 minutes.  Take them out, test one to check for done-ness.  Using a spatula, stir up the potatoes and place back into the oven and set the oven on broil for a few minutes.  Cook until desired crispness. 

Here's the final product.....


I served our home fries next to a turkey and cheese omelet.  They were crispy, flavorful, and simple to make!  The only thing is the prep time...taking the time to dice up the potatoes.  But, in the end, it's definitely worth it!  Give this simple side dish a try soon!  Enjoy!
