This is an easy potato Parmesan dinner that is saucy and cheesy!
This is dedicated to Thursdays growing up in NJ! Mama Goldstein is a healthy cook (except Holidays)! So one time a week she allowed me anything I wanted to eat. Usually, I would choose something to eat with the last name Parmesan. Meatball Parmesan, eggplant parmesan, or chicken Parm. Later in life I realized that these weeknight indulgent meals were a lesson in themselves. Don’t wait till the weekend to celebrate life. Eating something mid week gave me something to look forward to other then Friday-Sunday! This is an amazing tradition with available lesson. We need to treat ourselves every once in a while. Do something fun on a Tuesday. Eat something indulgent on Thursday. Finally, use the kitchen as a time to self reflect on what went right today! Happy cooking and hope you love this Potato Parmesan recipe. Its sooo cheesy, saucy, and decadent.
Gratitude Tip While You Cook:
My mission with Chop Happy is to create easy recipe for busy people with a dash of gratitude! Since we all have to be in the kitchen at some point in our day lets use that time to zen out and gain more gratitude.
For the time the turkey cooks visualize your dreams as if it is already here. Working on you does not have to be a long drawn out process. It can be as simple as a couple of pages of a motivational book. The perfect book to read to learn more about finding calmness, your dreams and making your wishes a reality is The Secret!
Recipe Hack / Cooking Tips:
- Roast Veggies Not Steam: Make sure you spread your veggies out on a sheet pan so it does not steam in the oven. The space gives the heat enough time to get heat around the potatoes.
- Buy Your Marinara: I have fun recipes for homemade marinara but oil a busy work week there are allot of amazing jarred marinara. This saves time and extra dishes to watch!
- Gratitude While Stirring: Use the kitchen as a place for self care. As you stir or chop say what you are grateful for. I do this all the time so that cooking can be a time to recharge.
