The Potato Page

(A work in progress....)

I owe my life health to the potato.  There were times I couldn't digest anything else....and times I couldn't afford anything else.  It's sounds miserable to some, I'm sure...but eating homemade fries 5, 6, 7 times a day isn't so bad, really!   A snack might be 2 or 3 fries, well chewed.  A meal might be half a salad plate's worth, again...WELL CHEWED.  I relearned to LOVE salt during this period as well, having previously banished it from my meals for silly reasons.

I thought I would put all my variations on one page for easy reference....just in case there is someone else in the same boat.
