"How are they," I asked. "Like little puffs of heaven," she said. I agree! 😊 Who doesn't love fried potatoes! I make these air fries extra fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside by boiling them in seasoned water for around 5-10 minutes before putting them in the air fryer for another 10-15 minutes. I season the cooking water with salt, garlic powder and cayenne pepper. The potatoes soak up all that flavor and are extra tasty with even more spices and seasonings. So good! . The potatoes shown were grown in my gardens. Super fun and easy to grow! . . . . . #eatmorepotatoes #wfpbno #wfpb #easypeaseyplantbased #easypeaseywfpb #wfpbrecipe #POTATO #eatmorepotatoes #eatmorecarbs #allthecarbs #eatcarbslosefat #gethealthy #hownottodiet #inmimisgarden #oklahomagarden #oklahomagardener #wfpbgarden #victorygardens #ilovetogarden #grateful #garden #gardenfairy https://www.instagram.com/p/CC6zV-igeWo/?igshid=11d8k05hazp6n

I’m irrationally obsessed with this adaptation of Korean potato salad told to me by my globetrotting son. This version contains local yukon gold and purple peruvian potatoes, chilies, cucumbers, peas, and scallions. The dressing is sour cream, mayo, rice vinegar, and honey. I like it best warm. I defy you to eat a discreet amount of this! #gamja #koreanfood @brian_mcwrath #eatmorepotatoes #uglyproduceisbeautiful #heresmyfood #makersgonnamake #eatersgonnaeat #vegetarianrecipes #farmtotable #eatlocalgrown #potterinthekitchen https://www.instagram.com/p/B4fDwnxH81d/?igshid=1cfcxnqkgjvo0

Nonsensical Rhetoric About Potatoes

I love and adore my not-boyfriend. He is wonderful. He has a huge issue with commitment, but I love him none the less. 

That said, he’s on a sailing adventure so I have free reign of the kitchen. I mean, come on. He’s out sailing the seas so he isn’t here to take over (something he’s very guilty of doing). In his absence, I get to make whatever I want.  

I’m a fan of what I can do when there is no one here to give me guff. The funniest part of that is my not-boyfriend actually does like my cooking. He has a hard time admitting it, but he does like it. One of our favorite things to do is make meals together. That’s love.

Anyway, he admits I make the best mashed potatoes. I really do. 

Growing up I absolutely hated them. 

HATED.

I think it was all the boxed taters from neighboring moms (my mom never made them) to local fast food restaurants in the North Dallas area. They were just gross. I would not eat them. 

(Right now, I am remembering the nasty taste.)

It wasn’t until I was making a Thanksgiving feast for some of my friends a few years ago that I discovered how good mashed potatoes can be. And they really are quite delicious.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I know. Mashed potatoes. Big deal. But, it really is! I missed out on years of greatness because I was fed grossness. 

Enough with history. Here is how I make them. 

First is choosing the right potato. Most people just go for your standard Russet. But not me. No. I use Yukon Gold. 

Now, I know Russets are good. And they make for a great baked potato. Or French fries. But, the Yukons are gold when making mashed potatoes. 

First of all, they are creamier and easier to work with while preparing the dish. For example...you don’t have to peel them. 

So...Yukon Gold equals simple, yummy goodness.

That’s all.

You didn’t think I would actually give out my secret recipe, did you? HA!

Ok. Ok. Ok. Here’s my two cents...

Add your preferred accoutrement. You know, butter, sour cream, cheese (VERY IMPORTANT). The type of cheese is really up to you. I mix it up.

Oh, and a super secret ingredient is...

Basil.

Chop it up and go to town!

Seriously, it is delish. 

I have to go make some taters now.

*Side note: I don’t peel Russets either. A lot people do. But I like the nutritional value. So, I’m keeping the skins on.

Easy-Peasey Spicy Air Fries - 🍟 Just some left over spicy potatoes popped into the air fryer for about 10 minutes. We love spicy boiled potatoes and they are so easy to make. Wash and chop potatoes. Cover with water in a pan. Bring to boil along with salt, garlic powder and cayenne pepper. I don't measure... just add to taste. So good! I like to make extra for air fries the next day. No oil necessary! Thanks for the suggestion @mrscupcake37 yum! 🙂 . Note: can add any spice or seasoning to cooking water. Potatoes will absorb the flavors. So good. . . . . #wfpb #wfpbno #forksoverknives #thegamechangers #starchsolution #chinastudy #nutritionfactsdotorg @nutrition_facts_org #hownottodie @gamechangersmovie @forksoverknives @thestarchsolution @physicianscommittee #whatveganseat #eatcarbslosefat #eatmorecarbs #allthecarbs #easypeaseyplantbased #easypeaseywfpb #wfpbrecipe #POTATO #eatmorepotatoes #ME #MECFS #healing #health #iamsixttwo https://www.instagram.com/p/CAtpG0KAbOB/?igshid=3presd40ep4k
