I’ve never been much of a potato fan.

Mashed potatoes? Ick. French fries? I’ll have a few but never crave them (unless we’re talking sweet potato; then I’m game). Baked potatoes? I have to drown them with all the toppings to get excited. I have several people in my life who are huge potato lovers but I can take them or leave them.

The one way I can get excited lately though? If they’re roasted and crispy and golden and bathed in olive oil and herbs. Kind of specific I know. But it’s what I like! These were served alongside the perfect chicken fingers I made last week and although I wasn’t planning on sharing this creation, I have to. Because they have me wanting potatoes. And that’s huge. Make them!
