Baby potatoes get the full treatment! They are boiled, smunched a little with a fork, spiced up, then baked to crispy crunchiness in a hot oven.

Recipe Notes
I like to serve these alongside a sandwich or a wrap, such as this Green Goodness Burger Wrap. They could also be a full meal with some Cheezy Chipotle Sauce!
