I started making Slow Cooker Garlic Parmesan Potatoes on the days when I leave early and want dinner waiting when I get home. The unsalted butter turns tender after hours in the slow cooker, and the garlic keeps everything comforting. It reheats well the next day, which is half the reason I keep coming back to it.
Using a slow cooker makes this recipe ideal for busy days, as you can set it and forget it until mealtime. It’s a great addition to any dinner table, pairing well with a variety of main dishes.
