Rocking side dish to bring some flare to any dinner. These roasted potatoes are made with the best of Southwest flavors like red onions, bell peppers, and spices.

SOUTHWEST ROASTED POTATOES 

When is comes to favorite foods, every family has their own set of dishes that are loved by everyone. For my family, it’s potatoes. To be more specific, it’s my scalloped potatoes and roasted potatoes that are most loved and most requested.

I, myself, am a big potato fan. My whole life, I preferred potatoes to pasta in any shape or form. Given a choice between potatoes, pasta, or rice, I will always choose potatoes. I was a born potato fan but my husband on the other hand, was not always a potato fan like me. When we first started dating, pasta is pretty much all he ate. (Mostly because it was all he could cook for himself, other than the “hungry man” frozen dinners.)

It wasn’t long, before I started introducing him to new foods, to cooking, and to delicious potato dishes that were not fried or mashed. After making him my roasted and scalloped potatoes just once, he was a full convert.

Now, 15 years later, he is still begging for scalloped potatoes every holiday and roasted potatoes with dinner. That’s because potatoes are awesome and roasted potatoes are the best.

Who can possibly not fall in love with small cubes of potatoes that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside? Even better when there are more flavors added. I’ve made roasted potatoes with lots of different flavors added in, like spicy cilantro lime, lemon and truffle oil, brown butter with bacon and onions added, and so many more.

This time, I decided to mix it up a bit and make some potatoes with a Southwest flare. These roasted potatoes also have red onion and bell peppers added and then, beautifully spiced with a Southwest spice blend.
