Yesssss!!!!!
This was a delightfully, Tasty, & No Fuss Potatoes. One pound of anything is not enough; in this house of 4-6 Dudes. Soooo I bought a 5 lb. bag of Red Potates & used a little more then half.
I generously doubled the sauce, with a pinch of Cayenne and cooked at 380* F for approx. 45 mins.; rotating tray every 15-20 mins. I served this as a side to grilled Bacon & Cheddar stuffed Burgers; it hit the spot. Can’t wait to make again and share!
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed them!
Oohh, I’m going to try this! Thank you!
They are seriously so delicious!
Looks awesome and I am sure it tastes great.
These golden brown potatos look really tasty!
Great idea to use oil Margaret!! I think I'll do that next time also!
These look delicious – I like that hint of honey with the potatoes! ~ Belle
I made them for supper tonight. Yummy! They are a keeper. I did sub oil for the butter and used the whole amount of sauce even though I only had 1/2 lb potatoes 😉
Yummy! I'll have to put those on my list.
This one sounds great! Easy and tasty–just my style 🙂 I can't wait to try this out!
