Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Refill potato shells with pulp mixture. If desired, place under broiler for 2-3 minutes to brown. Serve piping hot.

Answer 2

Twice baked potatoes are YUMMY!!! Just boil potatoes like you are making mashed potatoes after the are fully cooked from boiling, drain, and add all of the goodies that you would add to a baked potato, grated cheese, sour cream, chives and bacon bits. Stir them all up really really good put the potatoes in a casserole dish and add more cheese to the top bake @ 350 for about 30-45 min depending how much you have made and how big of a casserole you have!!!

Also, fresh asparagus with a little water and salt and butter in the microwave is GOOD with steak. After cooking in the microwave about 5 minute a bunch or so sprinkle crisp but done asparagus with Parmesan cheese!!!
French bread, sauteed onions and mushrooms with some butter or worcheshire and a good salad are always a must with STEAK!!! Enjoy and Good luck with your meal!!

Answer 3

Potatoes prepared anyway - baked, double baked, mashed, fried. Macaroni and cheese goes well with steak too. For a vegetable I love asparagus but it isn't in season now. Broccoli with melted cheese on top is good. Or corn on the cob. Even frozen corn on the cob (steamed or boiled of course) is pretty good. Steamed baby carrots are good.

Answer 4

Garlic Salted/Olive Oil/Baked Potato Skins....Save the meat of the potato for leftovers~You can sprinkle Bacon bits or Parmesan cheese before serving~
