Health Benefits of Potato Skins
Roasted Potato and Onion Wedges require very little prep time. This recipe leaves the skin on the potatoes so there’s no need to go through the hard effort of peeling them. In fact, there are many health benefits to leaving the skin on potatoes. With the skin, potatoes are a good source of potassium, fiber and iron. Potatoes are also naturally gluten-free. If that wasn’t enough, the potato can even boast it was the first vegetable grown in space. How’s that for a fun fact?

Your husband will LOVE these potatoes then, Sandra! I think it wouldn’t hurt to add more onions too if he really loves them. Enjoy!
Roasted potatoes are delicious no matter how you prepare them. I haven’t made them with onions though. I’m sure they impart a great flavor. Thanks for sharing these with us at the Let’s Get Real Link Party. It’s always great to have you join us. Enjoy your weekend Carrie.

Wonderful, Christie! You’ll love these potatoes. They’re so easy to make.
Love potatoes when they are simply seasoned. I would probably have to omit the onions since my oldest son won’t eat them or do them only on half of the pan. Thanks for sharing this on The Yuck Stops Here!
They would taste great without the onions too; they’d just be missing that particular flavor. Thanks for pinning and tweeting about the recipe, Erlene!

Thanks, Shari! I’m so thrilled you shared this recipe on your blog this past week as part of your great write-up about the benefits of potatoes.
These potatoes looked so yummy, I just had to click over from Ducks ‘n a Row. I make a similar dish but without the onions, so now want to add those in, too. Maybe tonight! And very cool about potatoes being the first vegetable grown in space. I’ll have to share that factoid with the NASA fans at dinner tonight.
We’re thrilled you came by! Hope the potatoes turned out great for dinner tonight and your guests enjoyed the fun fact!:-)
