Potatoes, albeit how high in carbs they are, are literally my absolutely FAVORITE vegetable. I truly think it stems from growing up and my only eating 3 vegetables – corn, canned peas (ONLY CANNED) and potatoes. My mother, hands down, made the best parslied potatoes EVER! Every birthday she always made them and ham & peas in a bechamel sauce over burnt toast.
While I was making the Apple & Onion Pork Roast the other day, I instantly knew I wanted to make these. This, folks, are meals *I* grew up on. Simple, comfort foods…
Every time I make these I’m always reminded of my Mom and I just get the biggest smile 🙂
Enjoy!
