If you still need a side dish recipe for Thanksgiving, look no further! This Roasted Potato Medley is the perfect accompaniment to your Thanksgiving dinner, or any holiday dinner this season! Pair with Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Carrots for even more veggie goodness!
The potatoes turn out slightly crispy on the outside, and nice and tender on the inside. The garlic salt and cranberries play perfectly off one another, with just the right amount of saltiness and sweetness combined in each bite.
The pecans add a nice crunch, and the parsley contributes some color as well as another layer of savory flavor. This dish is a hit every time I serve it!
