  1. I just planted my herb garden yesterday! I can’t wait for everything to start growing so I can try these awesome potatoes 🙂

    1. Yay for fresh herbs! They are THE BEST! My herbs are still living inside at the moment, but it won’t be long before they can be moved to the gardens outside. They make everything better, right?! Thanks, Megan!

  2. Farmer’s markets aren’t quite ready here yet, but hopefully in the next few weeks! These potatoes sound SO good, Blair! I’m always looking for new ways to prepare potatoes. These look so flavorful!

    1. Thanks, Gayle! Our markets just opened last weekend, so it’s early here as well. Not too long until everything is in season, though!

  3. Love this flavorful way to enjoy potatoes! I can’t wait to make these for my potato loving hubby!!

    1. Thank you, Jen! My hubby is a potato lover too, and always requests them with burgers or steaks. This is such an easy option that everyone loves!

  4. love this recipe! dill and potatoes is such a classic that i know that this would be so incredibly delicious.

  5. Side dishes ALWAYS stump me for some reason – I have millions of ideas for main courses, but not so much on the sides, so I am so happy to have this easy and delicious one! Just in some for fresh herb season!

    1. Thanks, Kate! I agree — I definitely have to put my mind to side dishes, or else it’s salad and/or microwaved steamed veggies every time! 🙂

  6. I’m weak in the face of buttery, crispy potatoes! 🙂 Love that you’ve added dill to them, what a great way to bring a pop of freshness to the dish!
