This was so easy to prepare - made this for lunch and took only a few minutes to have it ready! Loved the mix of parmesan and butter! Made for Zaar Tag. Thanks!

    This is an awesome way to make potatoes in the microwave. I usually just microwave baked potatoes, but this is a great alternative. It tastes great with just the right amount of seasonings.

    Fast, different way to make potatoes that's quick to fix in the microwave. Must have made large cubes, mine took a little longer to cook. Could reduce the butter if needed, also could vary this recipe by adding some minced garlic or herbs. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

    For me, making this recipe confirmed that bcmnicol really is - without doubt - the Spud Queen. I have been regularly making her Crock Pot Baked Potatoes since I discovered that recipe. And this recipe really is the natural complement: potatoes cooked SLOWLY or potatoes cooked SUPER-FAST! And, of course, vary the herbs to suit your taste preferences! I used unsalted butter and added three cloves of finely minced garlic and several grindings of a rosemary and sage blend of herbs in step two. Naturally these were not browned as they would be when panfried or baked but for fix-in-a-jiffy potatoes, they were scrumptious. Certainly a recipe I'm glad to have found and that I'll be using again! Made for EVERY DAY IS A HOLIDAY!

    Ooohhhh...I really liked these! I was in a crunch at dinner time and ran late in getting started cooking and realized there was no way I could make the potato recipe I had planned on making without running dinner WAY behind. I found this one and the potatoes were done in a flash! I did add a lot of seasoning before cooking. I added garlic bread sprinkle, garli garni and crushed red peppers. I also used regular salt and black pepper. I followed a previous reviewers advice and cooked this about 6 minutes before adding the parmesan and then I cooked it 2 additional minutes. These don't look like pan browned or pan baked potatoes. So if that bothers you...this isn't the recipe for you. I found they were cooked perfectly and the flavor was wonderful. Simple, healthy, tasty side dish you can make in a flash. A true winner with me! Thank you for posting!

    Just loved how simple, quick and tasty these potatoes are to fix for dinner. I have a similar recipe but it uses unpeeled redskin potatoes, and son won't eat them!! Well he ate these without a problem. Thanks Nichol for a wonderful recipe. Made for everyday is a holiday tag.

    This is really great when you want dinner in a hurry, these cooked up nicely in no time & are flavour packed. I did miss the crispness the oven gives though but you can't have everything can you? Thanks Bonnette!

    These were good. They seemed to lack a little something as far as flavor. I added extra seasoning salt and that helped. Quick and easy too. Thanks for sharing!
