I have used this recipe numerous times and always have had good success. Dinner guests always want the recipe. My family loves it. I do sometimes spice up the seasonings a bit with Paul Prudhommes Magic seasoning. I also pour about a half cup of milk over the top of everything before putting it in the oven. Very easy to make. Allow to cool for about 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Great taste. Works with all kinds of potato's but is best with reds.
