Baby Potatoes
- 2 pounds baby potatoes Halved for even cooking and easy eating.
- 1 pound smoked sausage Sliced to add a savory, smoky flavor.
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese For that gooey, cheesy topping.
- 1 ounce ranch seasoning mix This adds a zesty kick to the dish.
- 1/2 cup sour cream To drizzle on top for creaminess.
- 1/4 cup olive oil Helps to coat the potatoes and sausage for roasting.
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder For an extra layer of flavor.
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper To season the dish.
- 1/4 teaspoon salt Enhances all the flavors.
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions For garnish and a fresh crunch.
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly, cut each potato in half, and place in a large mixing bowl.
Slice the smoked sausage into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In the mixing bowl, add the sliced sausage, olive oil, ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Toss until well coated.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spread the mixture on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes until melted.
Drizzle sour cream over the dish and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
