Roasted Potato Tacos

This is by far one of the best recipes that I have tried in a long time and it has quickly made it to the top as a favorite recipe. The recipe is actually vegetarian based but Mom felt that it should have some form of protein in it so we just cooked up the couple strips of bacon that we had and put it on top...so, so, so good (the house smelled simply divine as it was cooking--we even cooked it in the toaster oven rather than heat the regular oven)! We didn't have the other stuff to do the dressing to with it so we just used sour cream, I can't wait to try real dressing.


Roasted Potato Tacos
Recipe came from Handle The Heat

4-5 Red Potatoes, coarse chopped
1/2 Red Bell Pepper, coarse chopped
1/2 medium sized Onion, coarse chopped
1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
1 teaspoon ground Cumin
1/2 teaspoon Chili Powder
1/2 teaspoon dried Oregano
1 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
Tortillas
Lime wedges, for garnish
Dressing

Preheat oven to 420 degrees. Combine potatoes, bell pepper, onion, salt, cumin, chili powder, oregano, and oil. Toss until potatoes and other vegetables are well coated in oil and spices. Spread the mixture out on a baking sheet and place on the middle rack in the oven. Cook for 30-40 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and browned. Spread the mixture on tortillas and top with a spoonful of dressing (recipe below). Serve with fresh lime wedges.


Dressing
2 tablespoons Sour Cream
1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh Goat Cheese
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon diced Jalapeno
1/2 teaspoon fresh Lime Juice

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk until smooth.
