POTATO CHIP POTATOES
Recently Mike and I were invited
to the home of Jeremie and Alicia
Pavelski to enjoy an evening
of conversation, laughter, and
a good meal.
POTATO CHIP
POTATOES
Jeremie and Alicia are one of the
most welcoming young couples you
will ever hope to meet. If you do not
yet know these two, I encourage you
to seek them out at one of the next
potato events.
INGREDIENTS:
6 medium russet potatoes, peeled
and cut into ½ inch cubes
Jeremie is good-natured and shares
his knowledge with a jovial sense of
humor and Alicia is truly beautiful
inside and out.
And...these two are pretty talented
in the kitchen!
They prepared for us a wonderful
meal, which included a side dish
called Potato Chip Potatoes.
Alicia shared a bit about this dish,
1-1/2 cup crushed potato chips
½ cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons of butter, melted
¾-teaspoon salt (to taste)
"I found this recipe a few years ago
when I became a potato grower’s
wife and started working at
Heartland Farms.
I have made a few tweaks over the
years to the recipe and it is always
¼ teaspoon pepper (to taste)
INSTRUCTIONS:
In a large bowl, combine peeled and cut
potatoes, 1 cup of crushed potato chips,
onion, butter, salt and pepper. Use salad
tongs or hands to toss the mix to combine.
Transfer to greased SHALLOW 2-quart
baking dish. Sprinkle top with remaining
potato chips. Bake uncovered at 350
degrees for one hour or until potatoes
are tender. When fully cooked, the potato
chips on the top will be getting golden
brown and crispy.
For added flavor, add shredded cheese on
top with crushed potato chips or try using
your favorite flavor of potato chips in the
recipe. Enjoy!
This recipe can easily feed 8-12 people as
a dinner side dish. I like to use sea salt, but
normal table salt works well too.

a hit. I love the simple ingredients
and how much flavor is packed
into each bite.
The crushed up chips give the
dish a great flavor and texture.
The ingredients are simple and
available at almost any grocery
store.
The preparation is also very
simple, which is great when
cooking a large dinner or having a
cookout…basically cut everything
up, mix everything together and
throw in the oven.
