Something that always is a win, even with picky eaters is browned red potatoes. Makes them think about french fries! This is a no brainer, easy recipe to start right before you start up your main dish, since it browns for a bit and the potatoes take a bit to cook. If you want to speed up the cooking process, cube the potatoes into smaller pieces.
