NOW on to the my super yummy Garlic Parmesan Aspargus and Rainbow Potatoes

I love cooking with rainbow or red, white, and blue potatoes. They’re delicious, packed with extra vitamins, and super fun for kids. One of my kids’ favorite recipes is my red, white, and blue Greek Potato salad. I always bring it to all our outdoor gatherings (especially on 4th of July).

This recipe came out even better than I anticipated. The asparagus came out so crunch and flavorful-they tasted like French Fries. My daughters, who are in a No-Asparagus phase, were actually arguing over who got more. No one could stop eating them. And the potatoes were of course a big hit. I mean—what’s not to like—parmesean, garlic, and potoatoes? YUM!

The secret to the pure delicious bliss of this recipe is the Chef Shamy butter.
Chef Shamy Garlic Butter –with Parmesean and Basil. Mmmm soo good. The butter combined with the grated parmesan cheese lends a delicious nuttiness. They taste like gourmet asparagus and potato fries. I dare you to eat JUST ONE.

How to Make Patriotic Garlic Parmesan Roasted Veggies

This recipe is adapted from Chef Shamy’s Crispy Garlic Parmesan Potatoes recipe.

Tip: The Asparagus does not take as long to took as the potatoes, so you may want to soften (or pre-cook) the potatoes in the microwave for about 6-8 minutes while you’re preparing the asparagus. That will speed up the roast time for the potatoes.

Ingredients:

1 ½ cups Parmesan cheese, grated
8 T Chef Shamy Pamesan Basil Garlic Butter, melted
1 bag of red, white, blue potatoes (also called Rainbow Potatoes).
1 bunch of asparagus

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
1. Put Parmesan cheese in a shallow bowl.
2. In another shallow bowl, melt Garlic Butter.
3. Dip cut-sides of yours selected vegetablepotatoes into Garlic Butter, then press into Parmesan cheese.
4. Place cheese side down on a greased baking sheet.
5. Brush any leftover Garlic Butter over top of the vegetables
6. Sprinkle any leftover parmesan over the top of the vegetables too.

For the asparagus, bake at 400 degrees for about 15-20 or until tender.

For the potatoes, bake at 400 degrees for about 30-40 minutes or until tender.
IF you’re in a hurry—microwave the potatoes first-then bake for about 10 minutes just to get a nice roasted crisp.
Serve immediately.
