Ingredients

▢ 3-4 large round potatoes rather than oval potatoes, washed and cut into ½-inch thick slices
▢ 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil plus more for drizzling
▢ Kosher or fine sea salt to taste
▢ ¾ cuo Basil Pesto
▢ 2-3 large ripe tomatoes diced
▢ 2-3 leaves fresh basil thinly sliced

Instructions

▢
Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
▢
Place the potato slices in a large bowl and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and salt to taste. Toss with your hands until the potatoes are evenly coated. Place the rounds on the baking sheet and roast for 30-45 minutes until tender and beginning to brown on the edges. (It’s nice if you can turn the slices over about halfway through, but not essential.)
▢
Once the potatoes are cooked, remove them from the oven and allow to cool for 3-5 minutes until they are cool enough to handle, but still warm. Top each slice with 1-2 teaspoons of pesto, a good mound of tomato, a bit of sliced basil, and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve warm or at room temperature.
