Ingredients
- Potatoes. Russet, red, or Yukon Gold potatoes work well. These provide a starchy base that becomes wonderfully crispy on the outside and tender on the inside when baked.
- Bell Peppers. Red, yellow, or green bell peppers add vibrant color and natural sweetness to the dish.
- Onions. Purple onions offer a nice touch of color and a robust, savory flavor that complements the other ingredients. Use white or yellow, if that's what you have on hand.
- Spices.Paprika, garlic powder (or onion powder), salt, and black pepper.
How to make these Baked Breakfast Potatoes
1. Place the potatoes, bell pepper, and onions, onto a large baking sheet (I like to line it with parchment paper). Season them with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and drizzle with olive oil.
2. With the help of your hands or a spoon, mix everything nicely and spread the veggies in a single layer. Bake for 30 minutes at 400°F.
3. While the veggies are in the oven, you can make the optional tahini sauce. To make it, simply whisk all of the ingredients until well combined. Use more water to thin the sauce, if needed.
4. After 30 minutes, take the baking pan out of the oven, gently toss the veggies, and return to the oven for 10 more minutes. Once fully cooked, plate the potatoes and drizzle it with the tahini sauce. Enjoy!
Optional add-ins
- Proteins. Sausage, bacon, or diced ham can be added for extra protein and flavor.
- Spices and herbs. Thyme, rosemary, oregano, or fresh herbs, such as cilantro, dill, or parsley can enhance the taste. Sprinkle some of your favorite seasoning, too! Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a touch of heat.
- Eggs. Cracking a few eggs over the potatoes towards the end of baking can make it even more satisfying.
Substitutes
- Add other vegetables. If you'd like to add other veggies you can do that. Great ones to add are zucchini, asparagus, mushrooms, or carrots.
- Substitute sweet potatoes. For even more health benefits, you can substitute sweet potatoes for the regular potatoes in this recipe. These will also add more sweetness as they caramelize.
- Substitute other sauces. If you don't have any tahini, you can enjoy these Baked Breakfast Potatoes with other sauces, such as ketchup, hot sauce, Ranch, Tzatziki, or Mushroom Bourguignon.
