Cheesy Red Potatoes is the B-E-S-T side dish ever! It’s terrific for beef recipes like Prime Rib Roast(which is what I served it with). But it’s also excellent to serve with chicken, pork or fish. It’s mashed potatoes on steroids, uh, well not quite. But it sure is awesome. The potatoes are kicked up a notch with cheddar cheese, sour cream, green onions, parsley, paprika and garlic. They are so delicious.

This recipe is a take-off from my fantastic Potatoes Romanoff recipe. The seasonings and cheese are increased to amp up the flavors. I didn’t bother peeling the potatoes, instead leaving the skins on like you would for Garlic Mashed Potatoes. They were so good I could just eat bowlful after bowlful of them. (And I actually did because I made plenty and there’s only two of us!)
Back in November and again in December I cooked up a couple of Prime Rib Roasts. The first roast was served with Potatoes Romanoff and my Mom’s Old-Fashioned Green Beans. I served that for our Thanksgiving dinner with my oldest son and his girl friend. I made the second roast in December and served it with these Cheesy Red Potatoes. It was a much smaller roast that I served just for John and me. I love prime rib. But I also like to eat it with mouthwatering potatoes! These Cheesy Red Potatoes fit the bill! I drooled over every bite.
If you need a fantastic side dish for company, a potluck or just for a family dinner, you’ve gotta give these scrumptious potatoes a try. Every bite will have you salivating. No kidding. 🙂
Cheesy Red Potatoes are awesome.
Potatoes never tasted as well as in this fabulous recipe!
You can see this is a big 9×13″ baking dish of potatoes for only the two of us. I ate these potatoes for lunches and snacks for several days afterward. Yum.
I served Cheesy Red Potatoes with a Prime Rib Roast and Bearnaise Sauce.
Here’s what I did.
I used these ingredients.
Wash red potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook until soft. Drain.
Mash potatoes with a potato masher. You’re not looking for a super smooth texture. Leave some of the potatoes in larger chunks.
Add part of the cheddar cheese, sour cream and green onions.
Add sea salt, pepper, garlic powder and parsley.
Stir ingredients well to combine.
Spoon potatoes into a greased 9×13″ glass baking dish. Smooth top somewhat.
Sprinkle generously with paprika and parsley, then add cheddar cheese on top. If desired, refrigerate casserole over night. OR you can bake immediately.
Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes or until heated through.
These potatoes turned out so wonderfully. This is a really tasty gluten free recipe that your family will love.
This is a terrific casserole for holidays.
Cheesy Red Potatoes served with Prime Rib Roastare sumptuous and amazing.
