ZESTY CRISPY SMASHED POTATOES 🥔🧀⚡️I am so excited to share this recipe today. If you are new here, or just not a local, I am thrilled to introduce you to Olga’s Kitchen Snacker Seasoning. Olga’s Kitchen is a Michigan classic favorite. It is somewhere where my husband grew up eating all the time. Even his dad used to go to the original location where Olga herself was making pitas! Everyone around here loves it, especially the famous snackers with the best seasoning! And now you can purchase the one of the kind seasoning to cook with at home. We have used this seasoning for some many amazing things, but these crispy zesty smashed potatoes are a WINNER. It makes the potatoes super zesty and gives them that bold cheesy flavor we know and love. This would be an amazing recipe for a holiday side dish too. You can find the full recipe below. Olga’s Snacker Seasoning can be purchased here. I hope you love them as much as me!

Add potatoes to a large pot of water with salt. Bring to a boil until tender (about 15 -20 minutes depending on potato size).

Line potatoes on a lined baking sheet and carefully smash each with the bottom of a glass. They should break easily.
