Betty Crocker packaged potatoes are always in our cupboards. They're a perfect go-to side dish that everyone loves. They're also good to have just in case you need to take a casserole somewhere with little notice or time to prepare something fancy. I found this recipe in an advertisement for their product. This makes something basic and good downright fancy after all.
