Can’t decide whether to serve sweet potatoes or Yukon gold potatoes? You don’t have to choose if you make this roasted Yukon gold potatoes and sweet potatoes recipe!

Necessity is the mother of invention. When I was getting ready to make dinner last week, I looked in the potato bins and discovered I only had one large sweet potato and several small Yukon gold potatoes. I didn’t have enough of either type of potato to make a side dish for my family. Instead of skipping the potato dish I was planning on serving, I decided to roast the sweet potato and gold potatoes together, and a new family favorite was born.

My family enjoyed the savory potato side dish so much, that I created a formal recipe for it. But if you don’t have the exact ingredients, do what I did and improvise. You can substitute red potatoes or russet potatoes. If you don’t have fresh garlic to mince, replace the minced garlic with 2 teaspoons of garlic powder. Sometimes the best recipes are made while making do with what you have on hand!

Roasted Yukon Gold Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, washed but not peeled, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 6 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, washed but not peeled, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Place the cut sweet potatoes and the gold potatoes on a baking sheet or large casserole dish.
  3. Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes. Toss to coat.
  4. Sprinkle the minced garlic, dried rosemary, onion powder, salt, and pepper over the potatoes. Toss to evenly distribute the spices.
  5. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until fork-tender.

    I make something almost exactly like this and we love it! Sometimes with red potatoes. I think the rosemary makes this dish!

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
