in all seriousness: anyone have a suggestion for a potato-centric dinner?  i'm cooking tonight and have been asked to use our freshly dug-up potatoes from the garden.  i was about to search for recipe ideas when i thought "what the hell, let's see if anyone on the board has an idea... ya never know...". 

GO.

(vegetarian options welcome)


update: currently in the lead: Garlic Butter Potatoes - simple and effective.
