Crispy Smashed Potatoes
What’s the one food that we all love no matter how it’s prepared? For our family it’s potatoes! As we move through the winter you can find all kinda of different varieties of potatoes all over the farmers market and grocery store. These Crispy Smashed Potatoes are a side dish I make for my family every week.
