   Hi hi!

   In my house, we usually make what we call mustard potatoes! Basically, we cube the potatoes (with or without skin, its your choice) and mix in mustard (usually enough to coat them evenly, but you dont want it too thick, just a light coating. and sometimes we even mix in honey mustard), then add in some garlic powder, and Montreal Steak Spice! Bake it in the over, covered, at 450 for 40 minutes or so! I usually check at 40 minutes.

   I think rice sounds better with that.

   Rice does sound a bit better with this than potatoes.

   Or you can use sweet potatoes instead of normal ones. I can recommend making it into a mash by boiling the sweet potatoes, mash them up with a bit butter and stirring in some nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. Its delicious and should go well with the chicken in coconut.

   I think wild rice sound great, but here’s the recipe for the potatoes I’m making for dinner this evening.

   Cheesy Potato Casserole

   1 (2 pound) package frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
   1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of potato soup
   1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup
   1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
   salt and pepper to taste
   1/4 cup milk
   1/2 cup chopped onion
   1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
   1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley paprika to taste
   1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
   In a large bowl combine hash browns, potato soup, celery soup, sour cream, salt, pepper, milk, onion and bell pepper; mix well. Spoon into prepared pan and sprinkle with parsley, paprika and cheese.
   Bake in preheated oven for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

   You can use 1 can of cream of mushroom soup instead of the cream of potato soup
