I don't know how Lydia made them, but some people boil the potatoes a bit before roasting.

Didn't they do Dunkin' Donuts one year?

What the heck did Adam eat last night? Poured salsa and them some tabasco in a bowl, then dumped chips on top of it and stuck in the microwave? Really?

Puzzled, I know she peeled them first. You may be right about parboiling. When they came out of the oven they were brown, crusty and very fluffy and soft in the middle. Do I remember that she coated them with olive oil before putting them in the oven. I know they were always a hit with the other HG.

Karuuna, it sounds like he made a sort of a meatless enchilada mini-casserole. I hope he put cheese on it.

Didn't Lydia cut an X in the potatoes before roasting them too?

Archie, no cheese. Just salsa, tobasco, and chips, then microwave. Said it was a 'great way to use up the broken chips at the end of the bag.' Well, okay...

She probably did coat them with olive oil, Archiecat. If you make them with a roast, there's enough fat to cook them in.

Yeah, Panda....I remember the "X" she cut, now! HG said they had a really crispy outside.

I think I am thinking about those potatoes because I have put myself on a "NO white food" diet and lost some weight. Maybe one white potato wouldn't hurt....
