Last Minute Potato Wedges (they are to die for)

So the day after any big holiday at my house, everyone comes over again to keep feasting on the leftovers. 
This year we didn't have a ton of people coming so we didn't make a ton. We actually had more people for leftovers than for the actual meal. So I decided to make something fresh and yummy to fill in with. 
I went for something easy because I had just gotten home from Black Friday shopping and still had to wash the kitchen floor. 
These potatoes were perfect. I think more potato wedges were eaten than pieces of pie. 

These things are easy and perfect for the last minute. They only take 20 mins in the oven! 

Here's what y'all need:
1/2c balsamic vinegar 
1/2c olive oil
1T salt 
2T fresh rosemary 
(Mix all those together in a bowl) 

You also need Russet potatoes that have been washed and scrubbed clean. Then cut them into wedges (I like them thin but my sister likes then thick) they don't have to all be the same. I get about 8 wedges per potato. Start with about 4 potatoes and see how many you can get out of your marinade. I don't always use all mine so I pour it into a cute little jar and serve it for dipping when it's just for my family rather than a crowd. 

Then just toss a few wedges at a time in the marinade or whatever ya want to call it. 

Then place them on a baking sheet that had been lines with parchment paper. 
Stick them in the oven at 450 for 20 mins. You need to turn them over half way through. 

If they are done but you aren't ready for them leave them in and just turn off the oven they will get a little crispier and I think that's a good thing :) 

Happy holidays y'all.
