HERBED GARLIC POTATOES

Herbed Garlic Potatoes image

My mom cooks from scratch and rarely uses a recipe. That's how I learned-a pinch of this, a dash of that. But it was actually my dad who invented the basis for this recipe. The potatoes fit any kind of meal from fancy to burgers-and everyone asks me for the recipe. -Sherry DesJardin, Fairbanks, Alaska
