I really have been trying to eat healthier for the New Year. I am 20 days into the new year and I have been eating more salads daily, plus I like to create healthier sides. I created these very delicious Garlic Smashed Potatoes to go with our Rotisserie chicken.

 

 

These Crispy Garlic Smashed Potatoes are creamy in the middle and crispy on the outside, and full of flavor. I swapped out the butter with NAKANO® Seasoned Rice Vinegar Splash-on Roasted Garlic. These potatoes are so delicious and guilt free! They are so easy to make and will be your go-to potatoes when you need a delicious side dish.
