These potatoes with chicken and make it a dump meal and freeze it?
I apologize I do not measure the recipes. Potatoes don’t freeze well, so would not make a good freezer meal.
Do these potatoes need to be cut thin and laid out like this, or could you just wedge the potatoes like you do in some of your other potato recipes?
made these and they were good but I didn’t spray the crock..used recommended amount of olive oil but will decrease that next time bc/ it had to much oil at bottom when finished..will make again
I have your Cranberry Ck. In my crockpot right now. Smelling sooo good. Ty
