Simply Sides 16 - Creamy Crock*Pot Potatoes
Can you believe in 34 years on this earth I have never had something as simple as a fingerling potato? Well, I have seen them a lot online and on TV but have never purchased or made them, so when I saw them on sale at Aldi for less than $1 a bag I grabbed them and found a recipe. The recipe came from Pinterest (so this is both a Pinterest Pick AND a Crock*Pot Cafe recipe, as well as a side dish!!!). Find the original recipe HERE. The sauce you finish this dish with tastes like a lighter alfredo sauce and was absolutely delicious with the chicken I served with these potatoes. Simple (and cost effective!), this recipe is great for a weeknight side dish.
Creamy Crock*Pot Potatoes
Ingredients
- 1-2 lbs fingerling potatoes, halved
- 4 tbs butter, melted
- 1/2 tsp dried dill
- 1 tbs parsely
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1-2 handfuls of shredded mozzarella
Directions:
Place first 6 ingredients in the slow cooker insert and stir well. Cover, and turn slow cooker on low for 8 hours. Add cream and cheese, stir very well, and heat on high for 30 minutes. Serve on the side of your favorite protein (I recommend a boneless skinless chicken breast - I seasoned mine with Greek seasoning and baked for 30 minutes while cream and cheese were cooking with the potatoes).
Enjoy!
