Of all the canned potato recipes I have tried this one from my mother-in-law is the best. After she became widowed back in the late 80’s, she moved from Annapolis, Maryland to Sanibel Island, Florida to start a new life. She loved living there and found a job working for a caterer on the island.

When we would go to visit her, she always prepared the most delicious food with ease. Everything she made for us was what she learned to make using the caterer’s recipes.

One of our favorites recipes that I still make today is Herbed Canned Potatoes. They are beyond delicious and go nicely with a formal meal, simple hamburger or with eggs for brunch.

Canned food never tasted so good. The canned potatoes can be cooked in a cast-iron skillet or an air fryer.

The secret to their taste is a Florida-made seasoning called Everglades. It adds the most delicious mix of herbs and seasonings that I have never been able to create on my own.

When we run out, I have to buy it online since it is not sold in my local area. When I don’t have it, I substitute Herbamare seasoning that I buy at my local health food store. You can also sprinkle on your favorite seasoning blend.
