I've made these potatoes several times now and they're always a hit! They're so easy to make and they always come out perfect. I love that I can make them ahead of time and then just reheat them when I'm ready to serve.

These potatoes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more seasonings next time. But they were still good and I would definitely make them again.

I was pleasantly surprised by how well these potatoes turned out. I wasn't sure how they would taste after being made ahead of time, but they were just as good as freshly made potatoes. I will definitely be making these again.
