- Once potatoes are done, place onto a plate and smother it with your favorite gravy... or other toppings of choice. Enjoy!
Notes
*When I season my potatoes I DON'T MEASURE. I just add a little bit here and there until it tastes the way I want it to. I would recommend adding an 1/8 - 1/4 tsp of seasoning at a time... always tasting and adjusting until it comes out (how you like it).
