Notes
This recipe is also super customizable!
From adding more spices to extra veggies, this garlic and parmesan crusted potato recipe is super easy to customize! We’ve added green beans, carrots, onions, and a few other things to it and it still comes out fantastic every time!
Sometimes I like to make it a little spicier, so I add some chili powder to it.
It’s great to pour thickened stews over and use in place of mashed potatoes when you just don’t feel like making or eating those.
Kids like it, grown ups like it, and it’s easy. Being easy really is the best part. Well, that and the extremely minimal cleanup, haha!
Hope everyone enjoys this recipe – I know people have all sorts of versions. I just know I like to keep ours pretty simple most of the time, as it usually goes with something else:)
