Country Style Potatoes And Mushrooms Dee Dees Recipes

ROASTED POTATOES AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Pre heat the oven to 475 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. In a small bowl mix 4 garlic cloves, smashed, olive oil and dry thyme and combine well.
• Place diced potatoes and the olive mix in a zip bag seal then mix well to coat evenly.
• Spread potatoes in the prepared baking sheet, then sprinkle salt and pepper to taste (I found a pinch of each works great). Make sure you don't over crowd the potatoes as they will boil instead of roasting so use a large baking sheet.
• Place in the pre heated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes or until the potatoes are a golden brown.
• Meanwhile, place sliced mushrooms in a non stick skillet, sprinkle salt and pepper to taste, add 3 tbsp olive oil and saute until the mushrooms are slightly soft and brown and the juice has evaporated, about 7-10 minutes. Add minced garlic and saute for an additional minute or until the garlic is fragrant.
• Turn the heat off and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley. Mix to coat.
• Mix cooked mushrooms with roasted potatoes and serve warm or re heat in the oven for a few minutes, if served the next day.

MAMA'S OLD FASHIONED POTATO SALAD - DEE DEE'S

Steps:

• 1. Peel potatoes and cut into 1 inch cubes; place in a 5 quart pot, cover with water (I add some salt to water); boil for approximately 7 to 8 minutes (time may vary so check for firmness around 5 to 6 minutes, don't over cook and don't under cook, you don't want mashed potato salad and you don't want under cooked potatoes; drain and rinse in cold water; drain well.
• 2. While potatoes are draining and cooling off; combine chopped onion and eggs; set aside.
• 3. In a separate bowl, combine pickles, celery, salt and pepper, mustard and mayonnaise.
• 4. Once potatoes are cooled; add chopped onion and eggs; fold together gently; add mayonnaise mixture and combine gently with other ingredients; if salad seems like you don't need all the mayonnaise mixture; don't use it all, if salad seems to dry, add additional mayonnaise.
• 5. Garnish top with sliced boiled eggs and sprinkle with paprika if desired.
• 6. NOTE: This was an excellent choice for a side to go with https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-jalapeno-bourbon-ribs-dee-dees/pork and https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-cheese-biscuits-dee-dees/biscuits.
