Notes CREAMY CHEESE POTATOES MARCH, 1996 RECIPE St. Patrick?s Day is just around the corner. This Irish celebration brings to mind the stable potato, which is almost always on our menu each night. It is really nice to have many different potato recipes during the winter months to add interest to the meal. On a cold winter night, our family enjoys Creamy Cheese Potatoes. The potatoes taste great, and the recipe is very simple. Feel free to adjust the recipe to fit the size of your family. I often increase all the ingredients when the hungry guys are scheduled to be home for dinner. Go back to recipes
