Salty Sage Potatoes

I love finding new ways to prepare potatoes because potatoes are so cheap and a great addition to most the meals I make. This is easy and way yummy!!

What you need:
Potatoes
Sage Leaves (These are found in the produce section, they are fresh, not dried - took me forever to figure that out. I needed one container for 4 potatoes in a 9x13)
Coarse Kosher Salt
Olive Oil

Pick a cake pan (depending on how many potatoes you are hoping to make) and pour a thin layer of olive oil along the whole bottom. Pour the salt on top of that (for a 9x13 I do maybe 1 1/2 Tbsp). Pluck the sage leaves from the stems and lay them on top of the salt so they are evenly spread apart. Cut your potatoes in 1/2 length wise. Place potatoes, cut side down, directly on top of oil, salt, sage layers. Drizzle olive oil on tops of potatoes (the skins). Bake at 375 for about an hour, may need to adjust depending on your oven.

Serve these with the leaves on the potatoes (they sort of bake into the potato flesh), you eat the leaves and all and it is so dang yummy!
