Golden Parmesan Potatoes - Recipe

I thought I’d share another recipe here on my blog. This is another “tried and true” recipe - a delicious one. Golden Parmesan Potatoes.

This recipe came from a friend who has shared several recipes with me that have been keepers. 

I love potatoes any time of the year, but I especially love them in the colder, winter months. 

This past summer, I enjoyed all of the berries that came into season. I tend to equate a berry or fruit with each month of the year. For example, I think of strawberries in June, blueberries in July, raspberries in August, and blackberries in September. 

I also think of cherries in July, peaches in August, and grapes in September. I tend to think of apples in October and pears in November. 

Now, going into the winter months of December, January, and February, I think of citrus fruits like clementines, mandarins, oranges, and grapefruit which come into season and are full of Vitamin C. 

Bananas are available and in season all year long, but I tend to think of them more in March with the coming of spring. I think of apricots in April and mangos in May as they come into season. 

God is so good and so amazing! Each season and each month seems to have its own fruit that comes into season - and often when our body needs it. 

When I think of winter, I also think of root vegetables… like potatoes, onions, and carrots. 

I love cooking with potatoes in the winter time - in soup, in recipes, as mashed potatoes, or as baked potatoes where you can add your own toppings. Potatoes are a wonderful gift from God!
