Answer 3

My favorite thing to do is get some lipton onion soup dry mix, and bit of melted butter, and some new potatoes cut into quarter-wedges. Toss everything together in the broiler pan cook on 450, tossing everything about every 10 minutes, until the potatos on tender on the inside and crisp on the outside.

This is fabulous, always a big hit, and really easy to do.

Answer 4

Sometimes at parties, I make a baked potato bar. Bake the potatoes in the oven (not microwave) and have lots of different toppings. I have everything from broccoli to sour cream, salsa, chives, shredded cheese, etc. It's a fun way to add variety to an old favorite.

Have you ever tried twice backed?
You make like regular mashed potatoes, then sprinkle cheese on top and bake in the oven or microwave.
Soooooooooooo good.
You can also cut them up, add mushroom soup, garlic, and cheese, then bake.
Also try slicing them into chunks and pour italian dressing on them and bake.

Answer 9

We just made this for the first time tonight & it was awesome -

Boil your potatoes until soft, then you kind of just press down on them once with a masher or a fork so they're kind of broken up (skins on), then sprinkle salt or whatever herbs you want on and bake in the oven until brown and crispy. We had them with salt, and they were really good!
