  1. Used this as an inspiration for my boyfriend’s birthday dinner last night ~ since my pot roast was “sweet” {with onion soup mix, brown sugar and Dr. Pepper}, I didn’t think the dill would “go” too well … so, I used parsley, garlic, salt, pepper and a whole stick of butter. DELISH! Thank you for the inspiration!

  2. Try one of my old favorites some time. Make the new potatoes the same, but leave out the dill. Make a basic white sauce with butter, flour and milk and add salt and pepper to taste. Drain the potatoes and pour on the thick white sauce and serve. We do the same thing with frozen green peas. Cook the peas and add the white sauce just before serving. Simple and definately company fair. By the by, my youngest is 42 and weighs over 200 lbs. I still call him my Little Mark. You will find they never grow up in your mind. You have the best idea for remembering. After all, Recipes are for Memories! 🙂

  3. for a change try substituting the dill with the herb marjoram and adding a can of drained green peas. crack some fresh black pepper (about 1/4 tsp)heat thru. ummmm!

  4. Hey Christy, I made these last night and they were awesome!!! I even added 1/2 tsp of garlic and a little bit of pepper! OH MAN! The whole family loved ’em! My son just wanted the potatoes nothing else…lol…and the hubby and I ate them with our chili! mmm,…mmmm….mmmmm! So good! Thanks for the recipe it’s definitly a keeper! 😀

  5. All I can say is O-M-G these are good! My family isn’t wild about dill but they are wild about garlic so I just substituted. Wow! These are so good and so easy to fix. I don’t feel guilty at all making them. Thanks for such a great easy and delicious recipe.

    1. Oh, never allow yourself to “ever” feel guilty for eating “anything,” the Lord provides for you. While I realize all the buzz lately seems to have gone only to “Everything Healthy Food,” as my Mama used to say… If the Lord allows, I’m am going to be happy, blessed and eat exactly what I like until He calls me home! She did just that, too… never had a day she “ever” weighed over 100 pounds… she never skipped breakfast, which generally consisted of at least one kind of PORK, either a couple of strips of bacon, or sausage… she had also never “heard” the words “gluten free!” You only get one shot at this life, I’ve learned to be happy and know exactly where you’re going once you leave this place behind… so much of these matters are much, much more “genetic,” than the liberal media not to mention some rather “famous folks,” who are merely pushing a very calculated agenda. We are indeed a Blessed country… now, let’s all relax and enjoy the fruits the Lord provides for us. Blessings 😉
