Personal Notes:
I found this recipe in a Taste of Home magazine. It's so easy to make. Your dad found long, skinny russet potatoes the first time that I made this recipe. They worked perfectly! Also, if you slice the potatoes really thin (I use my ceramic knife), they cook nicely.

After eating these potatoes (March, 2022), Josh asked if I could cater their wedding. HA! I guess they are really good!
