Suggested Products

These are all affiliate links for amazon but you can go to a store to find a lot too. Amazon is just easiest.
  • Potato Gems or Pearls – We use these dehydrated potatoes as they seem to give the best flavor and texture.
  • Dough Scraper – Any ol’ scraper will do but we prefer a plastic scraper to scrape the dough and flour off our counter and out of bowls for 10x faster clean up.
  • Silpat Baking Mat – We bake everything on a silpat; cookies, rolls and even loaf breads cook evenly and without sticking! No spray needed!
  • Nordic Ware Cookie Sheet – The cookie sheet you use absolutely can make or break your recipe. If it’s too dark it will cause your food to look dark and over-bake. You want a cookie sheet that bakes evenly and won’t affect color.
  • Stainless Mixing Bowls – I love glass mixing bowls, but the truth is, everyone should have good stainless bowls in all sizes and these are great ones.

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • Sugar: Feeds the yeast to help the dough rise and adds a touch of sweetness that enhances flavor. It also promotes browning, giving your rolls that beautiful golden color.
  • Unsalted Butter: Butter adds richness, tenderness, and flavor to the rolls. The fat coats the flour proteins, which limits gluten development — that’s why your potato rolls turn out so soft and melt-in-your-mouth.
  • Milk: Milk makes the dough tender and adds subtle sweetness and flavor. The natural sugars in milk also help with browning, while the proteins contribute to a soft, rich crumb.
  • Potato Flakes: This is your secret weapon! Potato flakes (or mashed potatoes) make the rolls extra soft and moist by attracting and holding onto moisture.
  • Salt: Balances the sweetness, enhances flavor, and strengthens the gluten structure so your rolls rise evenly and hold their shape.
    • PRO TIP: Always add salt after the yeast has been mixed in with other ingredients to avoid slowing yeast activity.
  • Instant Yeast: The leavening agent that makes your rolls rise. Instant yeast works quickly and doesn’t require proofing in water first — just mix it right in with the dry ingredients.
  • Eggs: Eggs add richness, flavor, and beautiful go

Mom’s Cheesy Ham and Potato Broccoli Casserole [+Video]

Take your taste buds on a comforting journey with this delicious cheesy ham and potato broccoli casserole. It is creamy, cheesy, hearty and a totally comforting meal. Perfect for a family dinner or potluck!

My mom’s classic recipe that I hated for nearly my entire life, yes, even as an adult. I don’t know what has happened but in the last few years I’ve had such a craving for the classic recipes that I grew up on. Call it nostalgia, or maybe I’m just finally growing up and realizing what a gift it was that my mom made dinner literally every night and we always ate around a dinner table together.

This recipe is from her dear friend, Debbie, and I don’t remember a single year of my life that Mom didn’t make it, so it’s been around for a long time.

Ingredients for Ham Potato Broccoli Casserole

Grab your leftover ham and a few other ingredients, and let’s make this comforting casserole for dinner! Here is everything you’ll need:

  • New Potatoes: a little sweeter and less starchy than regular russet or yukon gold potatoes, we love the flavor and texture!
  • Broccoli: fresh or frozen broccoli florets work great
  • Butter: used to salute and onions and mushrooms
  • Onion: just a regular yellow onion
  • Baby Bella Mushrooms: can be substituted with white button mushrooms or omitted if desired
  • Salt and Pepper: adds flavor
  • Ham: adds flavor and protein
  • Cream Cheese: adds richness and creaminess
  • Cheddar Cheese: adds flavor and gooiness

The measurements for each ingredient can be found in the recipe card down at the end of the post.

Substitutions and Variations

I love to use leftover ham in this recipe, but any protein tastes great in this casserole. You could use rotisserie chicken, ground beef, bacon, sausage, etc.

Growing up, Mom usually skipped the mushrooms or only put them on half of the casserole in order to please her picky kids, but they are in fact her favorite part. Sautéed with onions in gobs of delicious butter, I mean, what isn’t to love?

You can also change up the vegetables in this casserole. Peas or green beans would be super yummy!

How to Make Ham Potato and Broccoli Casserole

  1. Prep: Butter or spray a 9×13 baking dish and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Parboil: Partially boil the potatoes for 8-10 minutes then drain and set aside. See section below for skipping this step.
  3. Steam: Place the broccoli in a saucepan and steam until bright green.

The Best Home Fries Recipe

Nothing beats a crispy, crunchy side dish of home fries! They are so comforting and relaxing and everyone loves them! Eat them for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

There’s something so homey about chunks of crispy on the outside and soft in the middle potatoes. I didn’t grow up going to diners, nor do I now, but potatoes were a staple in my home and they always bring feelings of safety and happiness for me. So naturally diner potatoes were something I needed to try!

Ingredients for Home Fries

All you need is 7 simple ingredients to make home fries, and I’m willing to bet you have most (if not all) of them at home already. Here is what you will need:

  • Russet Potatoes
  • Baking Soda
  • Vegetable Oil
  • White Onion
  • Seasoned Salt
  • Ground Black Pepper
  • Unsalted Butter

The measurements needed of each ingredient can be found in the recipe card at the of the post.

How to Make Diner Style Home Fries

One of the keys to home fries is that as you cook them, if they start to look dry in the pan, you need to add a little bit more oil and stir coat them and let them keep cooking. Let me walk you through the whole recipe step by step:

  • Prep: Start by washing the potatoes and you can peel them if you want. Cut the potatoes into half-inch cubes.
  • Boil: This step is optional, but if you want extra crispy potatoes, start by boiling the potatoes. Place the potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover the potatoes.
  • Cook: Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda. Put a lid on the pot and bring the water to a boil. Once it is boiling, remove the lid and let the potatoes cook until the cubes are easily pierced with a fork.
  • Drain: Once the potatoes are fork tender, drain them well and then pat them dry.
  • Sauté: While the potatoes are cooking, heat a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet (use a cast iron skillet if desired) and add the onions. Sauté the onions until they are soft and translucent. Remove the skillet to plate and set them aside.
  • Cook: Add the rest of the oil to the same skillet over medium-high heat and add the potatoes in a single layer (you may need to do a few batches). Allow the potatoes to cook on each side until golden and crispy. Stir as needed and let the potatoes cook.
    • NOTE: This is where you may need to add more oil if the potatoes start to look dry as you work through the batches.
  • Combine: Once all the potatoes are browned and crispy on all sides, add all the potatoes, onions and butter to the skillet and season with the salt and pepper and toss everything together to combine.
  • Serve: Serve the potatoes hot and enjoy!

Blue Cheese Potato Gratin Casserole [+Video]

Learn how to make a delicious and creamy Treasure Cave Blue Cheese potato gratin casserole with these easy step-by-step instructions. This classic French dish is simple to make but will impress your dinner guests with its rich decadent flavor!

I’ve teamed up with Treasure Cave for the next few months!

Treasure Cave got a new makeover! Blue cheese can totally be polarizing, amiright? But over here, we love it!! My dad and Father in law both are obsessed so I’ve learned that I’d better have new and fun recipes to serve just whenever either come into town. You’ll notice there’s new packaging and the flavor is just as wonderful and funky as ever!

Made with thinly sliced potatoes, cream, two kinds of cheese, onions, roasted garlic and fresh herbs. It’s a side dish you won’t be able to get enough of!

I actually used to hate blue cheese. Treasure Cave Cheese is literally the brand that sold me on it. Its flavor was totally different than other blue cheeses and gorgonzola I’d tried. So, when I got an email about partnering together, it was an immediate yes. Not because of all the blue cheese lovers out there, but because I am convinced that I can convert the haters.

Trying Treasure Cave Cheese will literally be a turning point for everyone out there that avoids blue or gorgonzola cheese. With this potato recipe, I’m aiming to take the peculiar flavor of blue cheese and incorporate it into a unique and outrageously flavorful dish. Over the next few months I’m going to give you three recipes that will change any blue cheese hater to a blue cheese lover. Stay tuned.

Utah Cuisine

If you asked anyone outside of Utah what typical Utah cuisine is, my guess is that they wouldn’t have a clue. Heck, if you asked people living in Utah, they might have no clue too, but there are a few dishes Utah is famous for…funeral potatoes, casseroles and Jell-O.

So I thought, let’s make a blue cheese spin on funeral potatoes and make it into a potato casserole! Everyone loves a side of potato casserole! It’s so comforting and indulgent! You won’t believe the extra depth of flavor adding Treasure Cave Blue Cheese gives to this recipe! I went ahead and didn’t include Jell-O…you’re welcome!

Ingredients for Blue Cheese Potato Gratin

I mentioned that I was once a blue cheese hater, but I’ve come to learn that in potatoes, in a dip, or anywhere it’s hidden, I can see that it adds a layer of flavor that wouldn’t be there without it. There’s an acid that adds such balance to recipes.

Cue the salt, fat, acid, heat section of our cookbook. Utilizing these few things (salt, fat, acid, and heat) transforms your cooking to levels you never knew you could cook at! Here is what you will need for this recipe:
