Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Add back to the oen for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with chopped parsley or chives for a fresh touch, and serve warm.
Storage Tips
To store, let the potatoes cool completely. then store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 - 4 days. To reheat, warm in a 375°F oven for 10 - 15 minutes to keep them crispy, or microwave for smaller portions.
If you’d like to freeze, skip the cheese and freeze roasted potatoes in a single layer in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge, and add the cheese when reheating in the oven.
