This recipe was created using left-over baby potatoes and feta cheese I had in my pantry and fridge. Roasting potatoes is my family’s favorite way of eating them. Coating them with the lemon vinaigrette and feta cheese was a great way to add flavor to these babies. After adding a sprinkle of fresh chopped chives from my garden, my family and I had this fabulous side dish with the brown sugar glazed salmon I made for dinner. Enjoy!

Incredible recipe !!
I have made it several times and was never disappointed with the outcome. I have had it right out of the oven (the best in my opinion) , but cold and even warmed up in the microwave the next day were tasty as well !

Do you leave this at room temperature or refrigerate it? Looks delicious!

Hi Jenny,
My family and I had these roasted potatoes warm and refrigerated the left-overs. You may either warm the left-overs or eat them cold.

I love this recipe. But I had trouble with the parchment paper. My potatoes got stuck. I kept moving them around but still had trouble. Any advice?

Hi, my advice is to skip the parchment paper and instead increase the amount of canola oil and hopefully the potatoes won’t stick to the baking sheet. Hope this helps 🙂
