Mashed potatoes:
You have to mix in sour cream to stabilize the mashed potatoes or they will become watery. But twiced baked potatoes freeze amazing this way.
Have fun!

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.

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. 
Potato salad, baked beans.

Steak, of course, baked potato and salad.
I really, really wanted this guy bad. Got him too...now I sometimes wonder why I really, really wanted him bad.... Just kidding!
Rolls, dessert (some kind of soft pie or chocolate pie). Instead of potato salad, maybe sm
mashed potatoes since they are edentulous. Green bean casserole was a great idea. Corn casserole too is yummy.

burned the crap out of my belly with mashed potatos
I was just stiring instant potatos and then somehow it jumped on my belly and now I have this 2-3 inch mass of skin that has blisters, some of which have popped, and this one 2 inch round lesion that just looks gross. I probably should have gone to the hospital, but since I have no money I just treated it over the counter with antibiotic ointment. Has anyone done this before? If so what did you use? It is painful!!!! I bought this lidocaine stuff, but it hurts worse. At least it is healing!!! I am a dum dum!!! Those potatos were out to get me darnit!!!
Pork chops, mashed taters, and roasted veggies
Hubby wants lots of meat!
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.
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...

SUBMITTED BY: Suzanne Cook PHOTO BY: Anderswin
"Fluffy sweet potatoes mixed with butter, sugar, and vanilla, and baked with a crunchy pecan streusel topping. This recipe was given to me by my brother-in-law."

DIRECTIONS

Just like a potato chip, can't pick just one!
300, Forest Gump, Bram Stokers Dracula, 50 First Dates.
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.
raw potatoes
If I remember correctly, put raw potatoes in the gravy and leave for 15 or 20 minutes or so. The potatoes will absorb some of the salt. Good luck!

Sweet Potatoes
I have never been able to stomach sweet potatoes because every recipe I've sampled has been way too sweet. Canned sweet potatoes smothered in maple syrup or brown sugar and mini marshmallows. YUK!
Does anyone have a tried and true recipe that is not so horribly sweet? Maybe I don't like them because I've never had them prepared properly?
Sweet potatoes
Fresh, not canned. Brown sugar and butter, sometimes pecans, but NO marshmellows.
Also pumpkin pie with whipped cream and pecan pie.

Have you tried baked sweet potatoes?
You prepare them exactly like regular sweet potatoes and you can either top them with butter or sugar and cinnamon. They are very good and I heard they are healthier too?
How to keep baked potatoes hot out of the oven?
Our church is having a potluck Februrary 21 where the men prepare the main dishes . DH had decided to bring baked potatoes with all the toppings . He will probably bake about 40 potatoes . How can they be kept hot ? I thought of lining a roasting pan with towels & covering it with its lid . Any suggestions?
baked potatoes to church
Wash and cut in half each potato. Wrap in aluminum foil and bake. Leave the foil on. They will stay hot about 2-3 hours out of the oven. I have used this recipe for 100 people. Put the toppings on ice! It is always a hit!
A baked yam or sweet potato is supposed to have the same effect, providing you don't

I made baked sweet potatoes for dinner last night
You cook them just like a baked potato. My 10 y/o daughter and I just like butter on ours. I love sweet potatoes though! I also have a really good recipe with apples and sweet potatoes in a casserole (see below). I brought it for Thanksgiving dinner last year and it was a hit! It's more tart than sweet and really delicious!
Apple-Sweet Potato Bake
3 pounds sweet potatoes
4 medium tart apples, peeled
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons orange juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1. Scrub sweet potatoes with a veggie brush under cold water. Pierce skin in several places; place on a baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 35-45 minutes or until almost tender (I bake them a little longer cuz I like them pretty mushy). Cool slightly; peel potatoes and cut into 1/4 inch slices.
2. Cut the apples into 1/4 inch slices; toss with lemon juice. In a greased 11-in. x 7-in. x 2-in. baking dish, alternately arrang sweet potato and apple slices. Sprinkle with pecans.
3. In a small saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar, honey, orange juice, cinnamon and ginger. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; pour over potatoes and apples. Bake, uncovered, at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until tender.
Here's another recipe I make sometimes. It's called "Heavenly Sweet Potatoes" by Campbell's Soup.
Vegetable cooking spray
1 can (40 oz) cut sweet potato, drained
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 ground ginger
3/4 cup Swanson Chicken Broth
2 cups miniature marshmallows
Spray a 1-1/2 quart casserole with cooking spray. Set the dish aside.
Place the potatoes, cinnamon and ginger in a 3-quart bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until the potatoes are fluffy and almost smooth. Add the broth and beat until the ingredients are mixed. Spoon the potato mixture into the prepared dish. Top with the marshmallows.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until hot and marshmallows are golden brown.

Chicken Salad
I agree with keeping it simple . . . just wanted to add that I love to use leftover grilled chicken, and don't forget the garlic. Love the garlic!
Speaking of Salad...
what kind of lettuce/other green leafy stuff do you like when you order/make a salad?
A couple of times I've gone in restaurants and they have brought me a salad that looked like they went out back and pulled weeds. Now, I love veggies, but that's some scary stuff. I'm simple..I just want iceberg lettuce!...then I can add other goodies that I can identify.
google 7 layer salad. This is one we like--sm

 Anyone have a good one?
After I cut up a salad with my fork and knife
I lick the dressing off my knife (even in restaurants). I can't stop myself. Life my BFF says, at least you have admitted you have a problem, that is the first step.
My grandmas jello salad
It's wonderful and I never had a thanksgiving without it (well I did have a few but I missed it). It's so so easy
1 - 8 oz package jello. (I always use black cherry, mom always used lemon).
1 - 8 oz. pckg cream cheese.
1 large can crushed pineapple.
Crushed walnuts - optional
Dissolve jello in 2 cups boiling water and add cream cheese and mix til cream cheese is blended in and no lumps. Add the can of crushed pineapple with the juice (this makes up for those 2 cups of cold water you would normally add to the jello). Throw in some chopped walnuts if you like and let set overnight.

My mother's "tropical salad"
I still love this.
1 can pineapple chunks -reserve juice.
1 can mandarin oranges - reserve juice.
16 oz sour cream (now I use nonfat)
1 cup shredded coconut (the kind in a bag).
1/2 bag of miniature marshmallows.
Mix everything & refrigerate it overnight. If it has gotten dry (the marshmallows absorb moisture) add some of the reserved juice. Before serving add 1 or 2 sliced bananas.
My sisters & I used to fight over this.
