Pass the Potatoes, Please

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at St Vincent chapter.

Ah, the holidays.  Who doesn’t love a holiday centered around counting our blessings, gift giving, and, well let’s face it, stuffing our faces with delicious food!  Everyone has a different favorite dish this time of year, but it seems to me that most people look forward to the potatoes more than anything else.  But why settle for just mashed potatoes and gravy?  Yes, I know it’s a delicious favorite and a holiday staple, but why not reward your pallet with something new and exciting?  Check these out!

These are just a few scrumptious-sounding dishes that I’m dying to try, but there’s a million options out there.  Potatoes never go out of style so give one of these a try for your next big family get together or maybe if you’re just really craving potatoes.  You won’t be disappointed!

St Vincent '18

Hello there! I am the Campus Correspondent of the Her Campus chapter at Saint Vincent College. As a senior psychology major, I've made the most of my time in undergrad and am excited for all the doors I have opening ahead of me. I can definitely thank Her Campus for giving me invaluable skills. As a future psychologist, I hope that my articles (and the chapter's) are able to make you feel empowered, motivate you to start a conversation, and be kind. As a hero of mine has said, "If you do not take control over your time and your life, other people will gobble it up. If you don't prioritize yourself, you constantly start falling lower and lower on your list."- Michelle Obama. Be the change you want to see in the world, and smile. Always smile!
