Potatoes

Potatoes were not in my plan for today.

But when I was reorganizing the pantry, I noticed that all of the potatoes in the 15-pound bag that we bought earlier in the week were starting to sprout.

Ugh.

So, cooking 15 pounds of potatoes became my plan for the day.

First I scrubbed them all. Then I picked out 4 to save to bake for dinner tonight.

The 10 or 12 biggest ones I put in the oven to bake.

While they baked, I peeled about half of what was left and boiled them.

While those boiled, I diced up the remaining potatoes.

The diced ones were roasted with olive oil, green peppers, onions, salt and pepper (2 9X13 pans).
The boiled ones were mashed.
The baked ones were cut in half, had their insides scooped out, and mashed, and then put back in the shells for twice baked potatoes.

Then they all got divided up, put in containers, and put in the freezer.

We are set on potato side dishes for quite awhile now!
