Recipe: Uncle Moe’s “Just add stuff until it works” Broiled Sliced Potatoes.

What you’ll need:

  • red potatoes that you bought last week for the pot roast and never cooked
  • red pepper that’s been in the vegetable drawer for two weeks but it looks OK
  • olive oil
  • the bag of shredded cheese that you keep in your fridge on general principles
  • the last two cooked sausages from a couple of days ago
  • onions.  Not that you can include them, because of dietary issues, but dammit there should be onions in this

Cooking:

  • Cut the potatoes into slices.  Dump ’em in a bowl, add some water, cover bowl, nuke for five minutes
  • Get that oven broiling.
  • Slice up the pepper into small chunks.
  • Pull the potatoes.  Drain, then toss ’em in a bowl with olive oil and salt.
  • Dump the potatoes in a baking dish.
  • Add peppers on top.
  • Broil for ten minutes.
  • Spatula the potatoes until they’re mostly turned over.
  • Broil for ten more minutes.
  • Slice up sausage into chunks.
  • Pull pan.  Dump cheese on top of the potatoes until it looks good.
  • Add sausage on top.
  • Broil for five minutes.
  • Eat hot.

The potatoes will cook, but will not be particularly crispy.  If you can time it better, go for it.  Also: get those onions in there wherever, but I’d go with right from the start.

  1. Hard to go wrong with meat, ‘taters, and cheese in any combination. Deepest sympathies on the diet restrictions. I now have a hankering for Tater-tot™ casserole….

    1. I have recently discovered that hot dogs I didn’t mind 2 months ago are now abhorrent to me because I have eaten them with potatoes and cheese a few too many times. I should probably find a new protein to abuse.

      1. Hot dogs are a delicate beast, I’ll grant you, but calling them “meat” is generous. 🙂

        1. The label claims “Made from chicken with pork added!” I think I just need to find a good deal on sausage of some sort.
