I am this excited to share today’s Week of Thanksgiving Favorites recipe with you: Party Potatoes Deluxe! Look up “irresistible” in the dictionary, and you’ll find this creamy, cheesy, crunchy side dish.
Party Potatoes Deluxe is my Mom’s specialty potato dish that she serves every year for every major holiday. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, and every special occasion in between are not complete unless there’s a big, bubbling casserole dish of these cheesy potatoes present. I can’t remember a single holiday over the last 25+ years where it hasn’t been served!
In case you haven’t guessed, butter puts the deluxe in Party Potatoes Deluxe — and the party for that matter. It gives the creamy dish a rich and decadent flavor, and the crushed cornflake crumbs on top an audible crunch. That said, this ultimate potato dish is definitely a bit high on the calorie scale, but for a special holiday, it’s worth the splurge.
While mashed potatoes and gravy will always have their place at the Thanksgiving table, my family will always make room for Party Potatoes Deluxe!
Hope you’ll give it a shot (I know Iowa Mom Eats would be very pleased!)
