Parmesan Potatoes

Easy, but really delicious – my kids ask for these often!

4 potatoes
½ stick butter
Can of Parmesan Cheese
Seasoning salt, pepper


Peel (optional) and cut potatoes in ½” to 1” pieces. Melt the butter and dip potato pieces in the butter, then roll in parmesan cheese. Lighlty season with salt, and/or seasoning salt, pepper.

Bake at 400 degrees for 30 min.

Broiled Tomatoes with Parmesan Cheese

Substitute other herbs (such as oregano, marjoram, or dill) if you like. These quantities make one serving:


1 large, firm tomato
Salt and pepper to taste
¼ t. crumbled basil (optional)
2 teaspoons mayonnaise
4 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese


Halve unpeeled tomato crosswise; sprin¬kle with salt and pepper. Sprinkle each half with 1/8 teaspoon basil, spread with 1 teaspoon mayonnaise, and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons cheese.
Broil 7 to 8 minutes about 10 inches from the broiler. (Although the cheese will not brown as nicely, you may also bake these in a 450° oven for about 10 minutes.) Each tomato makes a serving of 2 halves; 1 half can garnish a steak or fish plate.
