What to do with a 10 lb. bag of Potatoes

I wrote a post about using a full bag of potatoes! Seems like I always end up wasting half of a bag, so I found a pretty easy solution. It's on The Coupon Project. Another great coupon site!

Let me know what you think... I believe my food pictures are much better in this post!! :)

Sometimes we dice ours and then freeze them for later use. We've also made frozen french fries too.

I'm so glad I read this post. I have a bunch of potatoes and we don't eat very many (got them in a produce co-op). I hate wasting them. I'm going to make a couple of these recipes and freeze them for use later. Have you tried drying potatoes? Just wondering if that works very well. I have a bunch of apples I'm in the process of drying right now.

GIVEAWAY: ERGObaby Carrier! -CLOSED-

Winner I have carried my little boy in a baby carrier since he was born. I love the convenience of strapping him in and not worrying about the hassle of a bulky stroller. It's also a comfort to hold my little guy close and safe. When I had the chance to review the ERGObaby carrier, I was thrilled to try something that could extend my baby wearing days. My first test was a true one...Costco. I admit that I didn't really look at the directions when I put the carrier on in the parking lot. But I didn't need to! After one look at a picture in the user manual, I strapped my 20 pound boy in, placed my little girl in the shopping cart, and started on my way through the aisles of Costco. I immediately noticed that the carrier more evenly distributed my son's weight than my normal carrier and held my boy high so my legs weren't bumping into his. This made it significantly easier to tote him around the store. Indeed my normal trips to Costco are exhausting. But
