Ingredients

1. 2 lb small potato medley, halved
2. 2 tbsp. olive oil
3. salt and pepper, to taste
4. Lemon-Basil Pesto, to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400
2. On a large baking sheet, toss potatoes in about 2 tbsp. olive oil. Season with salt and pepper (to taste).
3. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Tossing halfway through cook time. Potatoes should be tender and golden brown when complete.
4. While potatoes bake, prepare your pesto. Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. Set aside while potatoes finish roasting.
5. When potatoes are finished roasting, combine in a large bowl. Top with desired amount of pesto (I used about 3/4 cup) and toss to evenly coat. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

1. You can use whatever potato you prefer. I love using red potatoes, too!
2. If desired, top with freshly chopped basil for a little garnish!
