    Roast them, bake them, boil them, mash them, stuff them, etc. I love potatoes.

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

    A life without potatoes is a sad one...

    I cut them up to potato wedge size, toss with a little oil, roast in the oven until brown and crispy and eat with malt vinegar and salt. YUM.

    Cut into wedges, toss with olive oil, plenty of garlic salt or seasoned salt and bake until crisp.

    Cube, boil, then mash with with cottage cheese, salt, pepper, diced ham or crumbled bacon (or not), dump into casserole, top with paprika and broil until top is browned.

    Shred, sprinkle with a little salt and lemon juice and freeze to use later for hash browns or potato pancakes or to add to soup.

    Those crash potatoes from a prior post are awesome (it works best with small reds or yukon golds, in my opinion).

    Chop them up into little cubes, toss them with extra virgin olive oil, garlic, and fresh dill and pan fry until they start to turn crispy. Top with tzatziki and try to only eat one serving. :wink:

    cut em in half and roast em with some olive oil and sea salt&pepper and maybe a little rosemary. you can eat em like that, OR...
    when you make eggs for breakfast, take out a couple of these half taters. put them in a hot frying pan with a little oil or spray and give em one 'smash' with a fork. brown on one side, flip and brown the other to your liking. you can top them with eggs or eat em straight up like that. goooooooooooood stuff.

    Fry up some bacon.
    Cook the potatoes in the pan with the bacon grease.
    Scramble some eggs in the pan with onions and peppers after the potatoes are done.

    Breakfast!
