These baked potatoes are an adaptation of the traditional breakfast potatoes or «breakfast potatoes» from Anglo-Saxon countries. They are very tasty and easy to make, as well as very cheap.
Although these potatoes are usually eaten for breakfast, I prefer to eat them as a side dish. They are perfect served with some vegetable protein, and you can take advantage and bake some vegetables with them. Baked potatoes are the best accompaniment for a healthy and delicious lunch or dinner.

< li id="instruction-step-4">Serve immediately or store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 5-7 days.
Notes
- If you don’t want to, you don’t have to peel the potatoes, especially if they are organic.
- You can use any type of potato.
- I recommend that you make your own Italian seasoning at home, it’s very simple and much cheaper than buying it at the supermarket.
- I usually use pink Himalayan salt, although you can use any type of salt.
- You can substitute garlic powder for fresh garlic or onion powder.
- If you’re not using oil, you can substitute any liquid such as lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, water, or vegetable broth so that the herbs and spices stick to the potatoes.
- Nutritional information has been calculated using 1 tablespoon of oil.
