This is a delicious side dish with cheese, potatoes, and Ranch! What's not to love?! I am always begged to bring this wherever I go. It is a great complement to a barbeque or any potluck meal. I have experimented with using more chili powder and using seasoning salt instead of regular salt.

Steps:
- Wash and pierce potatoes in several places with a fork. Microwave on high 10 minutes until tender. Set aside to cool slightly.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, and dill. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.

- To make the potatoes crispy, broil them for the last few minutes of cooking.
- Serve the potatoes immediately after they are cooked. They are best when they are hot and crispy.
