Ingredients
4 medium russet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into wedges
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
Salt and black pepper, to taste
½ cup vegan cheese shreds
¼ cup chopped green onions
¼ cup diced tomatoes
¼ cup vegan sour cream or cashew cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or cilantro
Optional toppings: sliced jalapeños, olives, avocado, or crumbled vegan bacon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Cut potatoes into evenly sized wedges. Toss with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until coated.
Spread wedges in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
Sprinkle vegan cheese over the hot wedges and return to the oven for 3–5 minutes to melt.
Transfer to a serving plate and top with green onions, diced tomatoes, vegan sour cream, herbs, and any other toppings. Serve immediately.
Notes
Soak wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before baking to increase crispiness.
Sweet potatoes can be used as a nutritious alternative.
Use the air fryer for a faster, oil-light version.
Customize toppings based on your favorite flavors or dietary needs.
