Good recipe for potatos?!


Question:

Good recipe for potatos?

I have a bag of potatos that is going to go bad and its a pretty big bag! Does anyone know of any good recipes with lots of potatos?


Answers:
oooh i tried this once and I will never make potatos differently ever again:

pick up a box of Lipton Onion Soup Mix

Wash and then chop up potatos into thick chunks

in large bowl, toss potatos with 3 tblspns veg oil or olive oil

add one-two packs of onion soup mix (depending on how mnay potatos you used) mix well.

Pam Spray a large baking dish (I use a 13x9)

Place potatos in dish and bake at 425 for 35-40 minutes.

Tips: make sure not to use a round dish or pile the potatos too much on top of one another...they wont get a crispy outside

make sure to spray the bottom of your pan!!! If not, the potatos will stick like crazy!!

enjoy though...they're delicious!!

bake em

Boil them in water Then remove peels, then smash then addcheese anf butter or margarine mix and make a sandwich out of it

Mash them (adding milk and butter) and serve them with fried chicken! Mmmm!

make hash browns. Instead of shredding them my mother used to chop them into fine cubes, and pan fry with a little butter. They are great as a side dish.

Potato Soup
6-7 medium potatoes, baked,peeled & diced
1/2 lb raw bacon, diced
1 jumbo yellow onion, diced
1/4 bunch celery, diced
1 quart milk

In large, heavy pot, saute bacon, onions and celery over medium-high heat until celery is tender.
Drain grease and return bacon, onions and celery to pot.
Add milk, water, chicken base, salt and pepper.
Heat over medium-high heat until very hot but do not let soup boil.
In heavy, large saucepan over low heat, melt margarine.
Stir in flour to make a roux.
Mix well and let bubble, stirring 1 minute.
If desired, a larger amount of roux can be made to produce a thicker soup.
Gradually add roux to soup, stirring constantly.
Continue to cook, stirring, until thick and creamy.
Stir in potatoes, parsley and cream.
Serve hot, garnished with cheese, bacon bits and/or onions

calabazita
i think that's how its spelled... anyways
you fry some squash and potatoes.
it's really simple but its really good.
my family adds green chili and salt to help the flavor a bit...
it's AWESOME

you can also cut them in quarters...long ways
then slice them and fry them... that's good too.
when you're done put some Valentina on it.
its a Mexican hot sauce and doesn't have as much vinegar than most spicy sauces

Why not peel them and boil them all up and then mash them. You can freeze them in portions or make up some shepherd's pies and freeze those. It is a myth that potatoes do not freeze well. Also with a batch you can add some chopped onion and a couple of chopped hard boiled eggs mayo, garnish it with paprika or/and cut fresh chives. Then you have a nice potato salad which will keep a couple of days in the fridge.

Loaded twice baked potatoes (with cheese & bacon)

microwave the potatoes until slightly tender. Cut several of the best looking ones in half and hollow out the skin with a spoon. Place on a baking sheet. The remainder of the potatoes should be cut up and mashed ( with or with out skins depending upon what you like and how they skins look). Mix in a pack of hidden valley ranch dressing mix, a cup of sour cream( more if needed to mix easily) a cup of shredded cheese of your choice, crumbled bacon ( a cup of crispy crumbled bacon) , a half cup of chopped green onions. All of these ingredients can be altered based upon your likes/dislikes. Once the mixture is complete, spoon into the potato skins, top with shredded cheese, crumbled bacon and green onions. Place into the oven on about 300 for 30 minutes (or until the cheese is melted). If you have large enough potatoes... this can make a meal.
