Lainey6605's Note:

I love serving this with baked pork chops. Make sure to use freshly grated Romano cheese. This is a great side dish for a romantic dinner for two.

The sauteed onions and thyme really added a great flavor to these potatoes. These are company-worthy for sure. I made this as written but doubled the cheese. I'll make these again. Thanx!

I made these today and they were delicious. I substituted the heavy cream for soy silk creamer and the romano for soft feta. I will make this again.

We really liked these potatoes. They had great flavor. I added 3 galic cloves minced and some parsley for a bit of color and subbed parm cheese for romano, but other then that made as directed. Yummy!!
