Recipe for Easy Slow Cooker Italian-Seasoned Potatoes
Makes 4 servings (can easily be doubled)
Ideal slow cooker size: 3 quart
3 large yellow potatoes
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp home-made Italian dressing mix*
1. Scrub potatoes until clean. Cut potatoes into cubes. Place in slow cooker.
2. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with seasonings. Use a spoon and turn to coat the potatoes in the oil and seasonings.
3. Cover and cook on HIGH for about 2-3 hours or on LOW for 4-6 hours or until potatoes are tender (the yellow potatoes will cook a lot quicker than russet so keep that in mind if you choose a different kind of tater)
4. Stir the potatoes gently and serve! (some of the seasonings went to the bottom of my crock so make sure to stir to get all the goodness evenly on the potatoes)
*Homemade Italian Dressing Mix
1 Tbsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp onion powder
1 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp oregano
1 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp thyme
1 tsp basil
1 Tbsp parsley
2 Tbsp salt
In a airtight container, mix all ingredients and store with lid on tightly.
Review:
Potatoes are a great side dish to most any meal! This recipe is super super easy especially since I always have the Italian dressing dry mix already prepped. I like the yellow potatoes for this particular recipe but you could always swap them out with red or russets. I’ll be making this again for sure. If you’re in a hurry, you could oven bake these on a cookie sheet as well. Probably at about 425 for 20-30 minutes. 4 stars.

Would you be able to add crumbled bacon to this recipe
Sure!
Would these work in the IP like your Ranch Potatoes? If so, would I still use the oil or use butter as in the Ranch Potatoes and would I still add the half cup of water?
Hi Janet, I bet these would work great in the IP! I would follow the directions of the ranch potatoes. You could use either oil or butter, it’s up to you. Then add in the water and the seasonings.
Great for a main meal too. Love potatoes.
Me too. I literally just had mashed potatoes for dinner last night 😉
Since you said to store the dressing mix in an airtight container, I’m assuming we don’t use all of the mix for this one recipe. How much should we use?
You’ll use one tablespoon of the mix for this particular recipe 🙂
Very nice flavour. All of the family enjoyed this dish. Very easy to prepare. Would be happy to make again. Thanks for a lovely recipe.
You're so welcome Rocco. Thanks so much!
I love how they absorb the Italian flavors. I added carrots and sweet potatoes to mine,just because I love my root vegetables.
Oh, I love root vegetables too! That sounds amazing. Will try soon 🙂
They were delicious, and since it is just my husband and myself we had lefttovers, so I put them in the skillet and fried them up with eggs the next day. Yummy
Oh that sounds fantastic!
I made these tonight and they were delicious! I will definitely be making these again! Thank you, for a great recipe!
So glad you liked them!
I just threw these in my crockpot for dinner tonight. They already smell delicious! Check out my blog http://raeganmirickfoodblog.blogspot.com/!
I never think to roast potatoes in a slow cooker. These sound so good!
