These ranch potatoes are an easy take on our fave roast potatoes recipe.

Baby potatoes are tossed in ranch seasoning and baked until they’re tender on the inside and crispy on the outside.

These Ranch Potatoes Will Be A Go-To Side Dish Because…

  • Budget-friendly potatoes are always on the menu and pair with everything.
  • Using baby potatoes (or red potatoes) means no peeling and quick prep.
  • Double or triple the batch and serve them all week long with chicken or meatloaf.

You’ll Need Only 4 Ingredients

Potatoes: Baby potatoes have thin skins that don’t require peeling and are less starchy than other spuds, but Yukon golds or russet potatoes will work too as long as they are cut to the same size.

Seasonings: Buy or make homemade ranch seasoning mix (and avoid the artificial flavors and preservatives). Switch out the olive oil for leftover bacon grease for a smoky flavor and to save a few more pennies!

Variations: Season your spuds to match the menu! Try using a taco seasoning, a zesty Cajun, or everything bagel blend. For extra crispy potatoes, sprinkle a little parmesan cheese on them before baking in Step 4.

How to Make Ranch Roasted Potatoes

  1. Cut the potatoes in half.
  2. Toss with oil and seasonings (recipe below).
  3. Spread on a baking pan and bake until browned.

Storing and Reheating Ranch Potatoes

  • Mash leftovers and add them to garlic mashed potatoes or serve them cold tossed with a tangy lemon vinaigrette.
  • Potatoes can be frozen in zippered bags for up to one month.

  1. The recipe calls for 1 packet of dressing (the package says 4ounces. Your recipe also said 1 ounce, can you clarify that for me. It is the dry seasoning, not the actual ranch mixture?
