Russet potatoes/3 recipes

While this cold salad has some elements of a traditional warm German potato salad, it is totally Americanized to suit my family's tastes. Great with grilled burgers, dogs, meats and poultry.

Last Wednesday we took this colourful and delicious salad to a pot-luck, everyone loved it and a few of them even asked for the recipe. It was such a refreshing salad that's also packed with goodness.

These fritters were very tasty. Made these fritters for dinner the other day, I added 1 chopped scallions and 1 small fresh red chili pepper and also made a chipotle chili and toasted cumin sour cream dip to accompany the fritters, yum!

A simply delicious millet salad. It's quick, easy, tasty and healthy.

An excellent way to use up leftover chicken or turkey meat. The recipe uses phyllo instead of a carb-dense and high-fat pie crust, which significantly reduces the amount of calories.

You'll need your crockpot to make this hearty soup made with italian sausage, zucchini and chickpeas.

A classic German style potato salad that is served warm. Perfect for Octoberfest.

These easy to make mashed potatoes are very smooth and creamy. The garlic is boiled with the potatoes which embeds the garlic into the potatoes.

This is a great dish to serve guests when you really want to impress them. Looks wonderful to the eye, especially using yellow and red peppers for some contrasting colours. And the taste is perfect for summer or any season. Very light and fresh with little bursts of flavors and textures.

Mashed potatoes on top, several kinds of vegetables, give this pie a tasty flavor.

Much better than classic Macaroni and Cheese. This version still has lots of cheesy flavor but is baked with juicy tomatoes and lots of mushrooms. Serve with a simple salad and make with whole wheat macaroni for a serious boost to the health value that's packed with flavor. A great family casserole.

Great soup, lots of textures from the different veggies, fresh clean taste with lots of meat. Seems quite healthy as well, creamy without using cream and chock full of veggies.

Even the sweet potato/yam "dis-liker" (me) liked the flavor of these. Nice little bite from the cayenne. And the amount of sugar was just right. I don't care for really "sweet" yam dishes at all! Thanks for this addition to our holiday dinner. (Part of my "Thanksgiving 2010" Menu)

Homemade Cream of Potato soup that's rich silky and smooth. Best of all, there's no cream!

My mother's famous hash brown potato casserole. Easy to make one dish casserole that creamy and delicious comfort food.

A souped up version of Mexican chicken enchiladas that's prefect to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.
