Crash Hot Potatoes

I found this recipe on Pioneer Woman...surprise surprise. I have a food crush on Pioneer Woman. She is so amazing. Her food is so amazing.

I made these to go with a big beef tenderloin and some roasted asparagus and it was all a hit. Seriously. A hit. The picture is of the last two potatoes which I ate for lunch the next day. The original recipe calls for new potatoes, but I was too cheap to spend the extra money on them so I just used regular red potatoes and they worked great.

Crash Hot Potatoes

Red potatoes, however many you want. I used 4 lbs red potatoes

olive oil

sea salt

cracked black pepper

Boil the potatoes until done. Preheat your oven to 450. Drizzle olive oil on a baking sheet and place the boiled potatoes on the sheet with a little space in between. Smash them down with a potato masher. Drizzle more oil on top and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, they should be nicely browned. YUM
