Hash Brown Casserole

I made this Hash Brown Casserole, which is a copycat Cracker Barrel recipe. However, I did not use any condensed canned soup. Every single person at the table said WOW this is so good. I was told to keep this in my rotation!

Crispy Parmesan Potato Stacks

These Crispy Parmesan Potato Stacks are SO crispy. I am always on a quest to find the crispest potato recipes. These are a quick and easy alternative to classic roast potatoes. Unless you have serious knife skills, I suggest you get a mandoline. You can get one on Amazon. Just be VERY careful!

Parmesan Criss-Cross Sweet Potatoes with Balsamic Glaze

Parmesan Criss-Cross Sweet Potatoes with Balsamic Glaze is a perfect side for your autumn menu. The sweetness of the potatoes really works with the saltiness of the parmesan cheese. I actually forgot to put the balsamic glaze on, so I guess you could say it's optional!

Cheesy Hasselback Potato Gratin

Who doesn't love a cheesy potato gratin? This Cheesy Hasselback Potato Gratin has creamy, layered potatoes that are baked to become crispy browned on top. It's a recipe where Hasselback potatoes meet gratin. The potatoes are thinly sliced and put in the casserole dish vertically, which creates way more crispy edges.

Leek and Potato Soufflé With Ham and Fontina

I made this Leek and Potato Soufflé With Ham and Fontina. We have made Gruyère Cheese and Chive Soufflé for over 32 years. This leek and potato version is less of a soufflé and more of a fluffy potato dish. The leeks and ham elevated the flavor of the potatoes. If you’re afraid of making a soufflé, this is a good place to start. The potatoes make it less delicate, so it’s less likely to fall.
