That's why we've rounded up a comprehensive list of potato recipes to show just how versatile this carb-y spud is in cooking.
On special holidays, like St. Patrick's Day or Easter, your family will love the potato side dishes like Ree Drummond's crash hot potatoes or the scalloped potatoes made in a Crock-Pot. Then again, there are plenty of potato recipes for any night of the week.
