When it come to potatoes, I actually kind of despise them? If it weren’t for the cardiologist telling me I need to eat them to boost my potassium, and my rheumatologist telling me to eat them as a carb since I have to cut grains and gluten, I’d probably be like a nun and sex…could …

When it comes to side dishes, who else votes they all need a delicious glaze?! 🙋🏼‍♀️ Growing up, I’d always request cooked carrots for holidays (who am i?!) but quickly, i got bored of just buttered carrots, so as i grew up and needed to bring sides to festivities and potlucks, i brought cooked carrots …
