  1. Start by scrubbing your potatoes well.
  2. Next make small slices into the potato or poke it several times with a fork- all the way around. This allows air to escape while the potato is cooking.
  3. Cut a square of foil large enough to cover each potato separately and completely.
  4. Place all potatoes into a large Tupperware bowl that has a lid and add your garlic, seasonings and olive oil place the lid on and shake thoroughly (it take a lot less time if you do it this way instead of doing it on every individually)
  5. Wrap each potato in it's own foil and place inside the Crock Pot.
  6. Cook on high heat for approximately 3 hours.

Steak and Potato Tacos

Steak and Potato Tacos|This Is Why I’m Full

These delicious Steak and Potato Tacos are sure to be a winner with every family member! Easy to make, and crazy delicious you will never want to make another taco recipe again! For me the most important part of these tacos was the potatoes, you can use frozen if you want to, hash browns or french fries will do the trick, but not for me!
I’m an over-achiever when it comes to potatoes, as you will see with my Twice Baked Potato Extravaganza! that I will be posting eventually. Anyway, for these tacos I planned to use store-bought frozen potatoes, but then I remembered the bag of potatoes sitting on the kitchen floor and I decided to make my own! In the past I have tried making fresh hash browns or home fries to go along with breakfast food, none of them worked out super well but for these Steak and Potato Tacos I decided to play it smart.
I both boiled and baked some potatoes, just to figure out what would work better, and I figured why not, I can just use the leftovers for another meal! Well, long story short the baked potatoes are what we ended up using for our Steak and Potato Tacos, they hold together much better and have that firm texture I was looking for!

Bacon Big Bear|This Is Why I’m Full

So Big Bear… Most of my memories of summer camping trips with my family involve Big Bear. This is something my dad always makes, camping or as I got older on Sunday morning to help with the hangovers! My dad always makes it with sausage but the Hubby is a huge fan of bacon, have you noticed? Anyway, Bacon Big Bear is my way of bringing my husband into my childhood! (Spoiler alert, he loved it and you will too!)

Pot Roast and Carrots

By Leave a Comment

pot roast and carrots

I’m a huge pot roast fan, there are so many things you can do with leftovers, it’s amazing! Pot roast is especially awesome for our little family because we love tacos, and in my opinion the best taco meat is shredded beef. We have made taquitos, chimichangas, quesadillas, etc from leftover pot roast! Plus the potatoes are a good way to stretch the meat into two leftover meals instead of just one! Plus Crock Pot make pot roast even easier to cook, don’t need to make a big mess in your roasting pan. Yeah. I’m a huge fan of pot roast and less mess..

Cheeseburger Soup

By Leave a Comment

#soup #cheeseburger

So like most young and newly married couples Dan and I live in an apartment. Boooooo. I can’t wait until we have enough money set aside to buy a house! One of the reasons I want a house is: apartment living prevents us from owning a grill. I want to make hamburgers every weekend in the summer. And I want to grill chicken instead of having to bake it. Want want want. Anyway, this is the closest I can get to cheeseburgers without making a huge mess in the apartment! (when we make burgers we make them in a pan on the stove and they get too thick and dry out. But anyway, this soup is really, really good! I can’t wait to make it again!

Panko Potatoes

By Leave a Comment

 

Panko Potatoes combines the perfect combination of salty, soft and crunchy. Sliced potatoes are good on their own, but add some panko cheese and garlic and you’ve got some amazing potatoes. It puts sliced potatoes to shame with just a little seasoning. We have this recipe posted along with a dinner meal from last month, but after revisiting the recipe we decided to make the potatoes on their own with another meal, and figured we ought to post just the potatoes on their own. They are tasty enough to deserve their own post. If you haven’t tried to make potatoes with Panko I strongly suggest you try it out at least once, what have you got to lose besides a potato and some time? You might just find your new favorite dish!

Cheesy Potato Casserole|This Is Why I’m Full

This Cheesy Potato Casserole is an excellent side dish, or main course if you’re into potatoes. We made this as a side to our main course Honey Soy Sauce Chicken. Don’t forget to put a layer of foil down on your baking pan if you don’t there will be a stuck on mess to clean up after dinner. Foil is a much needed step when making this dish.
