Recipe: Herbed Baked Potato Slices

It’s sometimes a challenge to use up leftovers… I personally like leftovers.. and thankfully so does Warren… it sure makes preparing supper some nights a snap…. not to mention it is a tremendous budget stretcher.

I usually don’t have any trouble serving a main dish as a leftover… vegetables are another story… most just aren’t quite as good the second time around… in that category goes baked potatoes…

I have several recipes I make to use up leftover baked potatoes… one is the recipe in today’s post… Herbed Baked Potato Slices…

TIPS

You really can use any seasoning mix… homemade or store bought that you like… I used Italian Seasoning from McCormick… and added grated Parmesan cheese and garlic powder to the mix… you can just use garlic and Parmesan cheese.. which also makes a delicious side dish.

I use a mix of melted butter and olive oil… you can use just either one… I like the buttery taste of butter and the olive oil cuts the fat a bit.

So next time when you make a batch of baked potatoes for a barbecue and have leftovers… like I did… try this simple recipe.. you’ll be surprised just how easy and good it is!
