Casserole

I love casseroles and I usually just make this with taco seasoning (hence the name I give it Taco Casserole) but have a few times used it with other seasonings as well. I am using my homegrown red and Yukon potatoes in the recipe. I use ground turkey but ground beef is fine as well. Brown like normally and drain meat.

Then add seasoning with water as needed, after a few minutes add other items you might want; bell peppers, onions, potatoes, etc.

Add it to the meat mixture for a few minutes (add more water if needed).

Layer in oven dish then add cheese of your choice, add another layer and then more cheese. Place in the oven at 350, covered with tin foil, for 30-45 minutes until potatoes are done.

Enjoy!

My Garden Vegetables...

I have been able to harvest a little bit of potatoes and green onions (which I had incorrectly purchased as I thought I was getting regular onions). So here are a few of the red potatoes and green onions drying out.

I picked the potatoes a few days apart from each other, and used them in two different meals. It was just enough each time for us to have as a side dish for one meal. For one meal I cut up the potatoes and just added butter with salt and pepper, the other time I had salt, pepper, paprika, chipotle paprika, and smoked paprika (this was little too spicey for me but my husband loved it). If you have never had homegrown potatoes they are fantastic. It has a lot more flavor and also when I tried one of the green onions even though it was really small it was very pungent (a little too much for me).

So have you ever tried homegrown potatoes or green onions before?
