    My favorite thing to make with red potatoes is crispy breakfast potatoes! Cut them into small pieces, microwave for 5-7 min depending how big you cut them just until they’re almost tender. Throw them onto a cast iron pan with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder and arrange them so they are all flat on the pan. DONT TOUCH so they get reeeeeal crispy. Then use a fork to flip them so another side can get crispy. Serve up with fried eggs and chorizo and you got yourself a 5 star breakfast baby!

    Aside from that, they are a waxy potato, so they are great for mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, hash, pot pies, etc. basically anything where you want the inside to be very soft. I usually also leave the skin on because it’s not as tough as russets.
