    Those are absolutely awesome Helga! I usually do them in the chicken frying pan and brown them over medium heat on the stovetop after mashing them up. I love 'em!

    I appreciate all that you share. I grew up in a home where mom was an at home mom, but, it was her kitchen, she didn't teach me a thing about cooking. Plus, she really didn't know how to cook either. When she got married in the 50's, she was a career woman and didn't cook. So, I understand it was a learning curve for her, all she had was her Betty Crocker cookbook. I have had many more cookbooks, and I just wish that we had yT back when I got married. Thanks for the explanation on the potatoes. Be safe and stay well. Catherine

    Hi Helga!!! I'd love to mail you a recipe but until Im able to, happy to have your po box. Is that permanent? I'd like to eventually send you some authentic recipes straight from my Nonna's kitchen. And, you don't think they were written in English 😉 Let me know if your' po box is OK to use. Thx for sharing another great recipe Helga! 💕

    Lol. I have a 10-pound bag of russet potatoes I bought for $1.69 at my local Aldi's that I felt I couldn't pass up. I love potatoes of all kinds and fix myself baked and mashed potatoes all the time, but 10 pounds is a lot for one person. My sister and niece don't want any of them and just aren't much into cooking, and it's not likely we'll get together for Christmas this year. So, I may half this fabulous recipe and actually try it very soon. My birthday's coming up, why not?

    Oh I am definitely going to write this down and keep it. I was raised in the generation and then families that didn't write down recipes most things were cooked from scratch and by feel and smell and taste. I have collected many recipes and tried to recreate my grandma's recipes and that type of thing my 35-year-old son has been along for the ride. One of the best compliments I could ever have was this summer when our washer wasn't working and my son needed a load of work clothes washed his friend said yeah come over but you need to look at my cupboard and cook me some food. Pretty much all they had was prepackaged boxes and vegetables but Cody mixed up a box of hamburger helper added vegetables to it added a little cheese.

    This is actually how I make my potatoes. My family is Italian and my Nonna would always add her own flare to American recipes. Everything was a little bit Italian. Always garlic, always herbs from her garden. My aunt added the cream cheese because at the time you couldn’t get a lot of soft Italian cheeses.
