hot potato

The reason you have to slice them in half before you wrap the whole potato to cook it is because it is too hot to eat even hours later. By being already cut in half, no one burns their fingers and the potato instantly cools off once it is opened. You do not need to put them back in an oven once they come out.

Need help regarding Potato salad?...sm
I have a problem. When my children were young they never liked potato salad. They always asked if I would make macaroni salad all the time with holiday meals. Today my son who is a teenager asked me if I would make potato salad to go with the turkey and all the other holiday goodies. He said he does like potato salad now. I have no clue how to make this as I have never made it. Any recipes/help would be so greatly appreciated. 
Potato casserole
This is my funeral potatoes recipe which does contain cheese, but I see no reason why you can't adjust a recipe to your preference. I do it all the time when recipes have ingredients that I don't like. I'm thinking you could replace the cheese with cream of mushroom soup or cream of potato soup. Go for it. Don't be afraid to make a recipe your own!
* 6 medium potatoes, boiled
* 1 pint sour cream
* 1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
* 1 bunch green onions, chopped
* 2 tablespoons butter
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon pepper
* 2 tablespoons milk

You can mince or grind down the pecans rather than chop 'em if you think that'll work for your guests.  Cat...

DIRECTIONS

Just like a potato chip, can't pick just one!

Those are probably my top ones that I never get sick of watching. I have a pretty huge movie collection and pretty much only buy ones that I really love though. I'm a fan of most all types of movies.
You should change your name to Couch Potato
hehe
I like Grey's Anatomy too but never can remember when it comes on to record it. I have also seen commercials for Swingtown and that looks good but I can barely keep up with the little I record now. I hesitate to add to it. :)
Bake like a regular potato
They are good if you make them just like a regular baked potato too and just add butter, salt, and pepper. My husband also grilled them in foil this summer with butter and just a touch of brown sugar and they were great. I do not like the canned, fresh are MUCH better and less sweet from the start. I also saw a recipe for sweet potato chips in the oven. I haven't tried it yet and can't remember where I found the recipe but I'm sure you can Google it.
Bakes potato soup
I like to make baked potato soup. Bake 3 large potatoes or 4-5 small ones. Cut them in half, cool slightly, then scoop out the middle. While they are baking I takes some time to heat up some chicken stock with a bay leaf, garlic, black pepper, a little time. Sometimes I use boulion (sp?) if I don't have stock. Add potatoes to this. Heat to boil. Puree if you want or leave chunky. Add milk and cornstarch if you like it thicker or sometimes I use potato buds to thicken it. The amount of milk/chicken stock, etc. depends on how much fat you want. I used to use almost full milk or heavy cream but not any more. I just use enough to make it creamy now. Put in bowls and top with cheddar cheese and bacon. Sour cream doesn't work well. Really easy and quick (can "bake" the potatoes in the microwave if you want). I find that kids love it if you call it cheese and bacon soup. lol Usually for the bacon, I don't cook a new package but instead when I cook bacon for breakfast, etc. I save 2 or 3 pieces in the freezer each time. Then when I want some for soup, green beans, or salads it is available.
I like potato salad with sweet pickles in it. sm
That's how my mom and grandma always made it, so I grew up eating it that way. But the very thought of sweet pickles makes my hubby ill, so dill pickles it is for us.
