These were one of our side dishes for our Valentine's dinner. My BF Mike and I really enjoyed them, and we both agree these will be a regular addition to our meal rotation because the potatoes are both delicious and easy to prepare with wonderful results. Company worthy, these can be served with the simplest meal or the most elegant meal you can come up with! Cassie

Another great way to have potatoes, that we love! Sometimes I top mine with Mexican cheese blend then top with sour cream and salsa!

We made this for dinner last night. We used garlic instead of cheese. I know, not an equal substitution... but it was great! I sliced the garlic into little slivers. Then put them into the slices of the potatoes. I found that if you stagger them they fit better. Then when the potato was all cooked, the garlic is really brown on the end but the inside is all soft and gorgeous. Perfect. I can't wait to try these with the cheese as directed. Oh and the cook time was great! It was pretty much bang on. The outside was slightly crisp and the inside was all soft and beautiful. Thanks!

Let me just add my 5 stars to the ever-growing list. I used a combo of fresh parsley and oregano and also added minced garlic (taking a cue from Saturn). Wonderful results. Very flavourful side. Easy to make. Lovely presentation. Definitely 'company' worthy! Thanks Kate.
