Potatoes

What do you do with 10 lbs of potatoes?
We got a 10 lb bag of potatoes from the Ranch Market for $1 again, and we decided that this time we will use all of them before they go bad. It's not so easy for a couple who also gets a bunch of other vegetables that need to be eaten. But we did it!
First, Mark made delicious roasted herbed potatoes. They were the best roasted potatoes I've ever had! Flavorful and crisp, but not at all oily or greasy.
Next, I made some papas a la huancaina and moussaka.
Mark also made a potato pizza!
The rest of the potatoes went into a soup:


This soup basically has all kinds of vegetables: potatoes, tomatoes, green onions, and corn.

If you end up with 10 lbs of potatoes, here are some other ideas for you to try:
pierogies
potato bread (I can't believe I don't have a link for that!)
potato torte (kosher for passover!)
gnocchi
