I find if I don't cook them that long then they are not done inside, and the use of foil actually cooks them better. <br /><br />Les, me too!<br /><br />Beth, easy and terrific! Great combo.<br /><br />Sherri, I sure do, too!<br /><br />Life on the cutoff, we buy them in 50 pound boxes from our local health food store. That's how much we love potatoes around here. :<)<br /><br />Cait, yes!<br /><br />Yvonne, I hardly ever see them on a restaurant menu over here, but then again, I don't go out to eat very often. :<) And what does 'moorish' mean??<br /><br />Yvette, I feel the same way! <br /><br />Dianne, you are so welcome!Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-58677921964537003052011-01-25T00:01:45.296-05:002011-01-25T00:01:45.296-05:00Those look really good!
