Hello Dear Reader,
Cowboy potatoes? It’s any potatoes, cooked with onions in a skillet. It’s not the healthiest recipe but once in a while it’s a big hit. We’ve always loved this since we used to camp when the kids were small. We used to have a one burner wonky hard to balance gas cooker so there was just one pan cooking. When we camped, eggs and beans went into the same pan and we’d sit on the campsite floor to eat it.
Take a 500g pack of cooking bacon, that’s basically off cuts of bacon and cut it up into bite size chunks. Three small onions sliced and ten mushrooms. All of those ingredients are ‘supermarket value’ and that’s fine for us.
When the bacon and other ingredients have rendered down add cooked potatoes. I used tinned potatoes for speed and ease.
Once they’d cooked, I added half a pack of cream cheese, just because I had it and it needed using up. You could add dried herbs, garlic, chopped sun dried tomatoes, any cooked veggies, just do your own thing.
Serve with what ever you like, we kept the camp cuisine thing going with beans.
Until tomorrow,
Love Froogs xxxxx
