It would not be thanksgiving at my house if we didn’t have DEFCON potatoes. They are literally the most amazing potatoes you will ever eat and there is never any left over for that post turkey dinner 4th meal. Pro tip: make another one for the next day because trust me, you WILL be craving them for par deaux.
