It’s the perfect time of year for comfort food, and I can’t think of anything as comforting as potatoes. So, what would stop you from serving them up?
Here’s the thing: Sometimes potato dishes can seem a bit, well, unoriginal. Baked, roasted, mashed… you might feel like it’s all been done. But the same characteristics that contribute to potato dishes staying under the radar can also be what make them shine! Their mild flavor makes them easy to incorporate into many different types of dishes and allows them to take on a variety of preparations and cuisines. They’re inexpensive and fairly easy to work with, not to mention versatile.
It’s time to take potato dishes from sides to the spotlight, and I’ve got just the recipe to help make it the star of the table: Roasted Squash and Kale Potato “Lasagna.”
Hearty, flavorful and original, this spin on a classic dish will leave your lasagna noodles with some major potato envy.
Thin slices of Russet potato take the place of pasta in this autumn version of a dish that’s always a crowd-pleaser. Roasted butternut squash and kale give extra substance {and even a healthy boost} while creamy ricotta and a blend of Italian cheeses bump up the ooey-gooey flavor factor.
