Roasted Potatoes with Bell Peppers and Onions

This is a perfect accompaniment to Shake-and-Bake Tofu (page 138), since they both bake at 425°. This needs more time in the oven, so start it first. Complete the meal with a simple salad or coleslaw.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

4 to 5 large potatoes, preferably red-skinned or Yukon gold
2 medium red or green bell peppers or 1 of each, cut into thick strips
1 large onion, halved and sliced
2 tablespoons light olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt-free herb-and-spice seasoning mix, optional
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 425°F.

    Step 2

    Scrub the potatoes well. Cut them in half lengthwise, then into approximately 1/4-inch-thick slices.

    Step 3

    Combine the potatoes with the remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir together. Transfer to a roasting pan (foil-lined if you prefer).

    Step 4

    Bake, stirring gently every 10 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and lightly browned, about 30 minutes, and serve.
