HIDDEN VALLEY POTATOES RECIPES

Steps:

• Stir potatoes with the melted butter, then sprinkle with ranch seasoning mix. Toss well to coat evenly.

• Grease the bottom and up a couple inches of the sides of a slow cooker pot with butter and place potatoes inside. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or high for 2 hours.

• Stir in the cream, sour cream and cheese. Cover and cook on high for an additional 15–20 minutes until warmed through and the cheese is melted.

• Gently stir (it’s ok if the potatoes fall apart a bit). Garnish with parsley or dill, if desired, and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add a generous pinch of salt to water, and bring to a boil. Simmer until potatoes are tender (approximately 15–20 minutes), then drain and set aside.
• Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray and space potatoes evenly with about an inch of space between them. Then, using a potato masher or large fork, gently press down on each potato until “smashed.”
• Combine garlic and butter in a small bowl, then brush generously on each potato. Sprinkle with seasoning mix, salt and pepper.
• Bake in preheated oven until potatoes are golden brown and crispy, approximately 25 minutes.
