Those infamous words. When someone in your family sees something or hears about something they think would be tasty and immediately inform you it needs to be making an appearance in your kitchen.
Now, I'm lucky and my boys are usually pretty polite about making requests. They know I'm always looking for new things to try, and are more than happy to oblige! But they are never too demanding, so I'm always inclined to make their requests happen.
This recipe came to my attention one weekend when we were watching one of the "special" channels on our Roku player. Yep, Gooseberry Patch has their own YouTube channel that we can stream onto our television. Talk about foodie heaven!
This one came across the screen and my boys were drooling. My husband declared "Oh honey, you have to make that." And I'm so happy I did! Plus, I'm really excited to share it with ya'll today. It is the perfect potato dish for all those holiday gatherings coming our way! It is easy. It can be adapted to feed a few or a lot. And most importantly, it's slap you in the face good!
You're going to love this for everything from a simple weeknight side dish to holiday parties galore. You can even pre-bake the potatoes, and save yourself some time. Either way, everyone is going to gobble it down, and then say to the cooks in their house "Hey, You Should Make That."
