Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • Potatoes (4 cups, cubed)
  • Olive oil (3 tablespoons)
  • Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Black pepper (to taste)
  • Broccoli (2 cups, chopped)
  • Cheddar cheese (1 1/2 cups, shredded)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the cubed potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  4. While the potatoes are baking, steam the chopped broccoli in a steamer basket over boiling water until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
