Smashed Blue Cheese Potatoes

  • Save

Smashed potatoes are one of the best sides dishes especially in a rush, in my opinion.It has every attribute of a steamy baked potato but with some extra crunch and very little time. When I have a lot of potatoes to make i go straight for smashing. You don’t have to worry about splitting the top and filling each individual potato. Just make a pile of them and load them up like they are nachos. These smashed potatoes are perfectly crisp, and creamy with some extra added crunch from the grilled onions. Throw on some meat, like bacon or shredded pork and make it a meal! Try these out and let me know what you think!
