Recipe Tips
- Programmable Crock Pot – so handy to use if you are going to be away from the house. Just set it and forget it! You can come home to the side dish being all ready to go.
- Crock Pot Liners – These make clean up super easy. It is optional but you will love just being able to toss the liner when you are finished. If you don’t use crock pot liners, I would spray the slow cooker with cooking spray.
- Cut Potatoes – To prepare this recipe, make sure to cut the potatoes in about the same size pieces. This helps to cook the potatoes evenly.
- Combining Ingredients – When combining the ingredients, make sure to coat the potatoes completely with the seasoning.

I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe. Thank you for sharing!
These were delicious! I increased the garlic & cheese (because who doesn’t love extra of that stuff!). I had it set on high planning for about 4 hours, but they were done in about half the time. I switched the heat to warm for the next couple hours, and they were delightful once dinner arrived. Absolutely saving this recipe!
These are amazing! I double the salt and pepper because we love them, and I use several cloves of garlic, pressed and minced.
Iโve made this 3 times and am making it again. I prepped everything and will toss the oil/seasoning mixture over the cut potatoes in the morning and set it on low so we come home to a delicious side and mouth watering aroma!
It makes a lot and these heat up great for leftovers!
