    How about some potatoes for dinner? Not only these cute little fellas look appealing and fun, but they are very delicious too. 

    I enjoy the process of cooking 95% of the time ( 5% is the time when I am being rushed or very tired). I usually watch some classes on my favorite website creativelive.com, some photography tutorials on YouTube, or some episodes of Friends on Netflix. Yes, I love re-watching Friends. It is one of my favorite TV shows and it rocks. While keeping those videos on the background, I can stay in the kitchen all day. That way I can learn something new and cook something good - great way to spend time.

    Today they had a live class on creativelive.com called Ditch Your Day Job by Michelle Ward. I was really enjoying it while slicing potatoes. 🙂 I hope that I will be able to ditch my day job at Starbucks in the future and pursue food photography/blogging/recipe sharing as a career. Fingers crossed.

    These potatoes could also be cooked with mushrooms, tomatoes, ham and other kinds of stuffing. I usually use bacon because it is very flavorful.
    Top them off with fresh herbs, garlic, yogurt or… some more bacon! Just cut the bacon into small pieces and fry in a separate pan until crunchy. Pour the bacon onto the cooked potatoes together with all the pan drippings. Yum!

    Prep Time 15 minutes mins
    Cook Time 1 hour hr 15 minutes mins
    Total Time 1 hour hr 30 minutes mins
    Servings 3 servings
    Calories 388 kcal

    Ingredients
      

    • 6 potatoes medium sized
    • 6 bacon strips chopped into small pieces
    • 2 heads of garlic for roasting
    • 2 tbsp olive oil to drizzle
    • fresh thyme
    • 3 garlic cloves minced
    • salt to taste

    Instructions
     

    • Wash the potatoes thoroughly under running water. Then, slice them thinly, but do not cut all the way through. You may choose to place the potato on a serving spoon while slicing to prevent the knife from slicing the potato all the way through.
    • Stuff the bacon pieces and some thyme in between the potato slices. Next, slice off the top of a head of garlic, so the cloves inside are exposed. Place the potatoes and the garlic on the baking dish ( I use parchment paper underneath.) Drizzle everything with olive oil.

    • Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in a preheated to 400F oven for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and keep baking for another half an hour. Note: cooking time may vary depending on the size of your potatoes. To make sure that the potatoes are cooked, just stick a knife through one. If it cuts through easily, the potatoes are ready.
    • Once ready, garnish with minced garlic, fresh thyme and sprinkle with salt.

      There are 3 things in potato peel:
      1 – Fiber
      2 – Dirt
      3 – Pesticide.
      You can’t wash away Dirt and Pesticide..
      Do you really want to eat Dirt and Pesticide ?
      FYI - The "eat the peel" fad started by people too lazy to peel potatoes. Now, they're enjoying the consequences of eating Dirt and Pesticide.

        Hi Jane! Thanks for sharing your feedback. I grew up in rural Ukraine, and we grew potatoes ourselves. We used to eat the peel, so I don't look at it as a trend. I scrub my potatoes thoroughly with a brush and I enjoy the skin. Of course, you can peel the potatoes, if you prefer.
