Need a last-minute side dish for this weekend? Look no more! These red, white, and blue potatoes are perfect for a colorful and festive Summer side dish for the 4th of July.
My favorite color happens to be purple and potatoes are one of my favorite vegetables. When I saw these at the store I immediately grabbed them because I never see purple ones at the grocery store. These potatoes get baked in the oven until their golden brown and crispy and they get seasoned with some fresh rosemary, garlic, and parmesan cheese.
Potatoes
Just to be clear there are no bags of colored potatoes at the grocery store where all these potato colors come together. You will have to purchase baby red and white potatoes along with some purple potatoes. It's ok if you can't find the purple ones and not every store will have them. I just happened to be lucky one day and there they were before the 4th of July. You might have some luck at farmer's markets finding this specific color. All the rest of the ingredients are pretty basic staples that can be found in your pantry.

ahhh fingerling potatoes I can't get them here so I'll just have to drool over my keyboard. Loving the rosemary and salt roasted potatoes... one of the best ways to enjoy potatoes bar none.

What a beautiful side dish. I actually bought red, white and blue potatoes at the farmers market this weekend & have rosemary in my garden. I think I have to try these out!
