Garlic Parmesan Sweet Potatoes
Oh hello, sweet potatoes. I am always down for some sweet potatoes and especially these!! Sweet Potatoes = Yummy There is just something so yummy about sweet potatoes. I love them baked, roasted, alone, stuffed (like this BBQ stuffed version), in salads, in breakfast hash, as a side, as the main… ANYWAY really. One of my favorite recipes for sweet potatoes are these Garlic Parmesan Sweet Potatoes. They are not only delicious but also super easy. Roasted and So Good! If I am not eating a whole sweet potato or mashed ones, I roast them. I roast them for several reasons. First, I love how it intensifies the flavor of…

Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes – A New Favorite
I am so OBSESSED with my Instant Pot. I cannot get enough of it. You literally can cook anything in it…even Cheesecake. I mean really you cook almost ANYTHING! As much as I loved the cheesecake the mashed potatoes I made in the IP (instant pot) were even better!! I could live on these Mashed Potatoes are a passion for me. My MeeMaw was the mashed potato Queen and I learned all my best tips and tricks from her. I am not going to lie I was a little nervous taking a favorite and trying to recreate it in the instant pot…especially for my mashed potato loving family. Thankfully they…

I could eat these everyday
I think if I could only eat one thing for the rest if my life it might just be mashed potatoes. I LOVE THEM that much, especially this new mashed potato recipe. Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes. They are loaded with tons a flavor, they are rich and creamy. It’s a family thing My MeeMaw LOVED mashed potatoes. I mean she LOVED, LOVED them. She loved them so much she always said she wanted to be buried in them. She was not buried in them, but she did really love them. Her mashed potatoes were very classic with a little sour cream added in for a little extra something, and now I have taken…

potato salad is a must have this weekend…
Memorial Day is fast approaching and that means it is time to start planning for the big BBQ you are going to be having and potato salad is a must have on our menu…and this potato salad is a delicious one!! Now I have made my fair share of potato salads over time but this definately one of my favorites. It all starts with the bacon. I mean any recipe that starts with bacon has to be yummy. Next comes the potatoes, I decided to roast the potatoes in just a tad bit of bacon grease (it’s just a little)…I mean I could have just stopped there and been so,…

frozen has never been so fancy
Not too long ago I was in the middle of a crazy week and The Hubby wanted to grill. I always loves it when he grills but I didn’t have any sides for the burgers. And then I looked in the freezer and saw the answer…frozen fries. Now it’s time to make them fancy Me being me I can’t just bake them as directed on the package, I have to fancy them up a bit. So how do you make frozen fries fancy, you ask? It really is quite simple…just a few shakes here and there and there you go…Fancy Fries. First spread them out onto a baking sheet and…

Bourbon + Bacon this Thanksgiving
Every Thanksgiving there is always a sweet potato casserole of some kind. Last year I did a casserole that had a little something for everyone (recipe can be found here) but this year I wanted to take it to the next level. It all starts with Bacon In my family if you want to make everyone happy you can add bacon to it and everyone will LOVE it. I was hoping this little trick would work for sweet potatoes as well. You see there are a few people in my sweet family that are not sweet potato fans. This is proof that not all people are perfect, just kidding (not…

a “healthy” mash
Mashed potatoes are a must have at all of our Thanksgiving celebrations and our Pot Luck Thanksgiving was no exception, but these have a little twist that surprised everyone. Make sure and check back often to get these recipes very soon… Pot Luck Fun One of the best parts of a Pot Luck dinner is never really knowing what is going to be coming through the door. And while this is a Thanksgiving Pot Luck I did have a pretty good idea of what to expect my Sis-in-Law really surprised me. She said she was bringing the mashed potatoes and I LOVE mashed potatoes so I was super excited. Only she told me…

one pan cheesy goodness
Busy weeks mean quick dinners are a must and this one pan cheesy potato dish is a perfect side. Yep cheesy potatoes all made in one pan, and done in less time than it takes to bake some chicken. Lets talk potatoes Do you walk into the potato area of your grocery store and your head starts spinning at all the options? I know mine has before. Which one works best for baking, for roasting for pan frying? I found this chart not too long ago and I think it is so helpful when deciding which potato you should choose. Potatoes are not just for baking anymore, but some potatoes are…

Fries without any frying…
yep…you read that right. I give you fries all done with any frying, even better they are primarily done on the grill. Fries any way, anytime… I love potatoes any way you give them to me, but I really, really love fries. I mean is there anything better then a hot batch of fast food fries? Maybe the non-fast food version…but still fries. I am that girl that will actually crave them, and The Hubby is that amazing guy who will actually go get them when I want them…he is so awesome. As much as I love fries I am not picky about the variety of fry…I love the original version and…

potatoes without the oven…YES I promise
I just can’t stand turning on the oven in the summer. It is just too hot here in Texas. I mean the heat index today was like 110 degrees or something crazy like that. Thank you Jesus that I work inside!! Even though it is summer… Even though it is summer The Hubby still wants his meat and potato dinners. I am a fan of meat and potatoes, but it is so hot outside. Can you hear the whine in my voice? Yes, I am whining. Since it is so hot outside I just can’t stand turning on my oven, especially to bake a potato…so it is time for the…
