These Crock Pot Garlic Parmesan Potatoes are on regular rotation at my house. I make them pretty often because they are a super easy recipe I can pop in the slow cooker and know they’ll be perfectly ready to eat by the time I get around to finishing the main dish.

HOW TO MEAL PLAN FOR SIDE DISHES

When it comes to meal planning, it is always the side dishes that stump me. I mean, I can think of the main thing we will eat for dinner but then I have to decide what to have with it. And that’s when I get frustrated. Well, these Microwave Ready potatoes make it easy. My family gets a nutritious side dish and I sweat less. So, ya know, it’s a win-win. The Microwave Ready creamer potatoes are a smaller varietal. They are small enough to cook in five minutes in the microwave. But it also makes them the perfect bite size.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
Garlic Parsley Microwave Ready Little Potatoes
olive oil
salted butter
minced garlic
shredded parmesan cheese
dried parsley

HOW TO MAKE CROCK POT GARLIC PARMESAN POTATOES:

Spray a 5 quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
Open your packages of little potatoes and set aside the garlic parsley seasoning packets (by the way – those packets contain all natural ingredients that are gluten-free, allergen-free and lower in sodium and sugar levels)

Slice potatoes in half. This part is optional since they are already pretty small to begin with but I think slicing them in half allows for maximum flavor coverage! After you slice them. Put them into your slow cooker.

Pour in olive oil and butter then sprinkle both packets of garlic parsley seasoning on top of the potatoes.

Finally, add in minced garlic, parmesan cheese and parsley. Give it all a gentle stir.

    I love mashed potatoes with gravy, also baked potatoes. Really, I like potatoes pretty much however they are cooked.

    Thanks so much for this recipe, I saw it the other day and have it in the crockpot now. It smells great. Thanks so much for including the spice mixture recipe as I could find the little potatoes but not with the spices included. Many times I bypass recipes that call for a specific product that has enclosed spices because I cannot find it where I live. This was great since you included the spice mix recipe. Thanks again!
