Suzy's Notes:
Portuguese Style Roast potatoes are a hit at every party! They’re a perfect side dish for your roast beef, roast chicken, pork and delicious with your Holiday baked ham.

Directions

Place all ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Toss well to coat potatoes. Place seasoned potatoes into a medium baking pan.

Cook at 400 degrees for about 1 hour or until fork tender. Toss potatoes every 15 minutes to achieve a crispy texture.

Potatoes get a bad rap, but they are totally healthy. It's what we do with them - french fries an so on - that makes them bad. My ancestors are from Ireland and believe me, we live on potatoes. They are a healthy food and quite versatile. This is a wonderful recipe. Thanks for sharing it.
