I am not a
particular fan of convenience foods. For the most part, the majority of them
are nutrition free. That is not to say that I don't, on the rare occasion, make
use of them. They are, after all, convenient, and so I will admit to having a
brick of Velveeta in my fridge (Who doesn't like those gooey grilled cheese
sandwiches made with pasteurized, processed, cheese food? Although I
think the word “cheese” is no longer a part of the description, or
perhaps it's the word “food.”), and a can or two of condensed cream
of mushroom soup. I will also admit to feeling a tad guilty any time I use one
of these products (but the convenience, she shrieked!).
If you are like me,
then I have some sit-yourself-down-and-brace-yourself good news. I have found a
truly delicious, organic, natural convenience food, thanks to the good people
at Melissa's Produce. Like manna from heaven these peeled
and steamed baby potatoes are going to change your
life. They are peeled, people!
Peeled! These tiny little
potatoes are peeled! They are also fully
cooked to fork tender perfection and pretty much ready to eat as is. Slice them
and add them to a salade niçoise -- tuna, green beans, hard boiled eggs,
tomatoes, onion, capers, and potatoes. (They are, after all, a product of France, and don't we all just
love French food?!) Cube them, add some crunchy mix ins, and toss with cider
vinegar and mayonnaise and you have a quick potato salad. Make shorter work of
soups, chowders, and stews by
adding these ready-to-eat potatoes.

What I love about them is that they can be
tossed into a 12" skillet in which a tablespoon of butter and a tablespoon
of oil have been heated to sizzling, and in minutes you have the most creamy
and delicious little potatoes browned in butter that you can imagine. I made
these for St. Patrick's Day and received raves. I'll also serve them with pork
chops and have the meal on the table in under 30 minutes.
These are life
changing, people! Flavor, nutrition, and convenience all in one package.
Kinda makes you want to swoon, doesn't it?
