It also makes the perfect addition to your corned beef meal for St. Patrick’s Day

I rarely find a potato recipe that can’t be further modified in some way. Granted, I like to experiment in the kitchen and have been known to stray some from recipes as they’re written. But every time I start making a recipe involving potatoes, I think of other ways to make it.
For example, I recently featured “Potato Chip Charcuterie Nachos” on a TV spot and instantly thought of different topping ideas someone could use instead. The nachos could be enjoyed with pizza toppings, barbecue chicken, or even something more exotic like a combination of apple, fig, and goat cheese.
When you hear me say that the possibilities are endless with potatoes, that itself is an understatement.
Please check out the “Potato Chip Charcuterie Nachos” recipe from our website (https://eatwisconsinpotatoes.com/recipes/potato-chip-charcuterie-nachos/), with or without modifications, for your next gathering.
But since it’s the month of the Irish, I’m going to share another versatile use for potatoes that you can pair with just about anything.
“Potato Bread” is easy, unique, and the perfect addition to your corned beef meal for St. Patrick’s Day. You can also make it in advance, but my favorite is sampling a slice right out of the oven.
Incidentally, I Googled “What is the most versatile vegetable,” and potatoes came up as the number one answer!
