    Potatoes are not good carbs.....make that salad and only eat half of it. Then buy sweet potatoes!

    Dry roast, oven chips, wedges, so many different ways. Mmm.
    I have tatties pretty much daily. Moderation is key. If It Fits.

    Nope. Potatoes are EXCELLENT for you. It's the crap people load on top of them that makes them bad.

    . You can cuube the potatoes and boil them, when they are just about cooked, take them pout of the pot and place them oin a dry towel, when they reach room temp, put them into a freezer bag and save them for a later date.

    Cube, parboil, dry, toss with duck fat, high heat roast

    Gnocchi, boil, rice, add flour, knead, roll out, boil

    Any hash, dice, brown, add meat, veggies, eggs

    And throw out the other half or what? Weird reply, nothing wrong with potatoes.

    Potatoes are excellent and for most people they are very, very satiating.

    Personally, I prefer them roasted with garlic and rosemary, but I'm not picky. Potatoes rock!

    Explain why they're not a good carb?


    OP, I chop 1" big pieces or so, toss in a ziploc with grapeseed oil, garlic, pepper, salt, and whatever other spices you desire. Roast them about 30 min or until tender.

    Back them. Poke with fork, 5 taters in microwave for 15 minutes.

    Cut them up into 1" cubes, throw them in zip lock with olive oil and spices. Back at 400, turning every 10 minutes until done.

    I love roasted potatoes, with a little minced garlic and herbs, but I have recently been making these quite a bit:

    They are better sources of potassium than bananas. Potassium is awesome for you.
