Posted: April 27, 2009 Filed under: Potato, Side dish 2 CommentsTo go with our Roasted Salmon dinner, Martha Stewart in the Everyday Food mag, suggests, Lemony Smashed Potatoes. This recipe intrigued me and I couldnt wait to try it. It was EXCELLENT! The lemon flavor was slight and the evoo and the s and p brought all the flavors together very well and made the entire meal perfect!
