Very good potatoes!!! Definitely not for the dieters, but no gravy needed. They taste great and are very easy to make, would make again. I cut the recipe in half because there were only 3 of us for dinner. I followed the directions exactly and they turned out great. Thank you for a great recipe. I served this with recipe #15702 and recipe #22149.
