Or what do you make with them?

I've always loved fresh pico de gallo on a baked tater, but I'm sure I'll tire of that sooner than later.

I'm following the MWL plan, if that makes a difference.

Thanks!

Today I made a very quick potato salad - I had boiled potatoes in the fridge, so I diced carrot, onion, celery, added it to the cubed potatoes. I made a dressing with a little bit of dijon mustard, white balsamic vinegar, and an herb de Provence mix. Kind of yummy - I was just in the mood for potato salad, and with the dijon mustard in there, I didn't at all miss any sort of creamy dressing. I've made it with veganaise before, but this worked too, with no fat added. Hope that helps!

I usually add a cheese sauce on top of it with some salsa. If I slice them into discs I will opt for the horseradish/mustard dipping sauce. But my wife loves the potato enchilada style. Can't say I blame her, they are very tasty.

Yes, Dijon is great for that, I go through huge quantities of it around here. I'm making scalloped potatoes tonight with a very creamy dressing, consisting of sun dried tomatoes softened in boiling water, which are blended with soya milk and corn starch. I'm going to top it with a fried panko bread crumb/garlic topping. I'm also going to layer the potatoes with thinly sliced zuccini.

Yummm. Can you share that recipe, nordgirl? I'm out of ideas for dinner tonight, and I have all those ingredients.

Malt vinegar and a sprinkle of black pepper.

Although I've learned to eat my baked potatoes plain with just a pinch of salt and pepper when I go out to eat, at home I also like them with the following things on top:

Bean chili

Chopped broccoli and "cheese"
(I use the melty cheese recipe from Dr. McDougall using nutritional yeast--it's yummy!)

On occasion I also make "sour cream" made with lite tofu.

I also have made corn butter, millet butter and carrot butter made from recipes in Dr. McDougall's books.

**edited to make a correction.

My favorite topping is refried beans and fresh salsa. Its so satisfying and tastes so good and you can use either pinto or black beans for a change. I also like browning potato wedges in a non stick skillet and dipping them in salt free ketchup or the no oil bbq sauce. For a quick dinner I top a baked potato with baked beans or chili.

Are these not fried?

Thanks for all the ideas!

As it's already getting pretty warm here in the south, I think I'll start eating more cold potato dishes before long. I see lots of potato salad dishes in my future!

Hummus.

Chipotle sauce.

Salsa.

Guacamole.

And sometimes just plain naked, especially sweet potatoes or new potatoes or Yukon gold potatoes.

I have fallen for steamed or nuked potatoes with Stubbs Barbecue Sauce..the Honey Pecan...the store I bought it at {I have only bought 2 bottles} has run out...maybe this is telling me I shouldn't indulge...this stuff is addictive! of course their is always mustard...

I use salsa or baked beans. I am a baked bean addict and I have to try really hard to not over do it.

I like to mash the potatoes and mix in sweet corn, BBQ sauce, salt and pepper. It's strange, but good.

Thanks for the ideas! I love BBQ sauce on a potato. Is there a particular one that is MWL friendly?
