What are the ingredients?

Parmesan Crusted Potatoes are made with just 6 ingredients, plus cooking spray, salt, and pepper!

• Cooking spray – We recommend avocado oil spray
• Small Yukon gold potatoes – may substitute honey hold or small yellow potatoes. While we prefer yellow or Yukon gold potatoes, you can also use baby red potatoes or small russet potatoes
• Melted butter – may substitute olive oil but the flavor profile will be slightly different and the potatoes may no get as golden brown
• Garlic powder, onion powder, and dried dill – may substitute Italian seasoning for the dill
• Fine salt and black pepper
• Parmesan cheese – we like to use finely shredded parmesan cheese, but grated Parmesan also works
• Optional garnish: fresh parsley, chives, or oregano, and flakey sea salt
