For my birthday this past year, my boyfriend took me out to dinner to a place called Interim where we had the most amazing blue-cheese potatoes. I of course then had to figure out how to recreate them at home. After searching the internet for recipes that sounded similar for a guide, I succeeded a month later when I cooked Brent dinner for his birthday.

I did not attempt to make this a healthy side-dish option. Apart from using reduced fat sour cream, mostly because that’s what I had, there is nothing healthy about this dish.

While preparing the menu for dinner, I recalled this dish and thought it would go quite well with the honey-glazed ham I had been meaning to cook. Sure enough I slopped up any leftover sauce from the potatoes with the ham on my plate, and even got an extra slice to fully clean my plate off.

I also served this meal with roasted asparagus (preheat oven to 400 degrees, toss asparagus in olive oil, salt and pepper, roast approximately 30 minutes).

This sounds like the perfect meal. Now, if only I could get B.O.B. Bob to like blue cheese. I’m working on it…but it’s a slow work in progress, unlike pickles and olives. When we finally do get to the point where blue cheese is something he’ll eat, these potatoes are definitely going on the menu!!!
