🧀 Slow Cooker Garlic Parmesan Potatoes

Ingredients

• 2–3 lbs baby potatoes (red or gold), halved if large
• 3–4 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
• ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning (or oregano)
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• Optional garnish: chopped parsley or green onions

Instructions

1. Prep the potatoes: Wash and dry them. Cut larger ones in half so they cook evenly.
2. Season: Add potatoes to the slow cooker. Drizzle with olive oil or butter.
3. Add flavor: Sprinkle in garlic, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Toss gently to coat.
4. Cook:
   • Low: 5–6 hours
   • High: 3–4 hours
     Stir once halfway if possible.
5. Add Parmesan: Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the potatoes during the last 20–30 minutes. Cover and let it melt.
6. Serve: Garnish with parsley or green onions if you like.

Tips & Variations

• Extra crispy finish: After cooking, spread potatoes on a baking sheet and broil for 3–5 minutes (ask an adult for help).
• Cheesier: Add a little mozzarella with the Parmesan.
• Spicy: Sprinkle in a pinch of paprika or red pepper flakes.
