Easy Oven Roasted Potatoes
I love potatoes of all kinds but onion flavored oven roasted potatoes are one of my favorites. They are easy to make but take about an hour to cook. This doesn’t usually work for me since I am not good at planning ahead. But occasionally I do think ahead enough to cook these for supper. They are inexpensive, easy and oh so tasty! I usually like to use russet potatoes for roasting and baking. If I am feeding the entire family, I make a large pan of potatoes (probably about 10 medium-large potatoes), but only use about 5-6 potatoes if it is just the 3 of us. I cut the potatoes…

Cheeseburger Hash Brown Skillet Meal
I bought a hash brown meal kit once and we liked it okay, but I figured I could make it healthier and taste better. I did and only used 3 ingredients plus salt and pepper. The kit used dehydrated potatoes that I had to add water to rehydrate and a powdered cheese sauce that had to be mixed up. I decided to use frozen hash browns, ground beef and Velvetta cheese. Not only is it better, it is even easier than making the kit version. My husband and I love this cheeseburger hash brown skillet meal. Since I almost always have my ground meat already cooked and frozen ready to…

Ham and Cheese Hash Browns
One of our favorite breakfasts is a one skillet hash brown meal. I have been cooking this for so long that I do not remember where the idea came from. My husband used to not be too fond of this, so it became a meal I cooked for myself when he was at work. Shane liked it so he would eat it with me, but Devin never liked potatoes so I always had to make him something different. It is Shaylee’s favorite meal and John has now decided that he likes it, so we have it for a family breakfast quite often. If we are all eating it, I cook…

Skillet Onion Potatoes
I love potatoes. I love them fried, stewed, roasted, baked, mashed, and almost any way imaginable. If I had to pick one item to eat for the rest of my life, it would have to be potatoes. I cook some kind of potatoes for almost every meal. The potatoes are as important to me as the main dish, sometimes they are the main dish. I am fine with a loaded baked potato for a meal, but my husband thinks he needs at least 4-5 different items for each meal. I was craving my roasted onion potatoes the other day but didn’t want to wait the hour it would take to…

Too Many Baked Potatoes?
Have you ever cooked too many baked potatoes? I had a couple large ones left over when my husband and son didn’t come home for supper one night. This is why planning meals ahead of time doesn’t work well for our family. I never know who is going to be home for supper each night. I hate wasting food, so I put them in the fridge after they cooled. The next morning I peeled them and cut them up into chunks about 1/2” square. I fried up a 1 pound roll of sausage, six slices and the rest scrambled. I pulled out the slices and added some oil, the potato…
