    Potato mushroom and onion skillet is a perfect go-to recipe for when you're short of time and looking for an easy healthy quick budget meal all in one pan! #neilshealthymeals #recipe #potato #mushroom #skillet

    Potato mushroom and onion skillet is a perfect go-to recipe for when you're short of time and looking for a quick budget meal all in one pan.

    Potato mushroom and onion skillet cooked.

    I guess you could say that this potato mushroom and onion skillet recipe is really just a potato gratin recipe.

    You might be right but I've made it with only the very minimal amount of butter and no cream, so it's not quite a gratin.

    However, its definitely still as delicious as a gratin, just without all the excess calories!

    So I decided not to call it a gratin because that would then make it just another gratin recipe, if you get what I mean? 🙂

    Conjuring up this recipe gave me an excellent opportunity to practice with my new skillet pan that I got for Christmas.

    Last year it was the spiralizer which gave you all these delicious spiralizer recipes.

    This year, it's this exciting new piece of kitchenware that will undoubtedly have an equal number of intriguing recipes coming your way!

    Oh, and I'm certainly not done with spiralizer recipes yet either. Standby for a few more of those as the year goes on!

    This is the skillet pan I use for cooking with.

    The pan is of a classic design and made out of cast iron.

    It's suitable for all types of cookers except microwaves.

    As it's made of cast iron it can last a lifetime!

      I usually stay away from gratins as the milk messes with me - but this "gratin without any cream" is my kinda "gratin" 🙂 Neil, this sounds so delicious and between my daughter and I, am not sure I'd have any leftovers to freeze up!
      Regarding your recipe migration, can WP Recipe Maker not migrate your Easy Recipes over automatically?
      If not, good luck - what a crazy long ordeal - but no doubt you will get it done and done well!
      Looking forward to your next recipe and yay for an upcoming getaway vacay - I cannot wait to see pictures and read all about it in the upcoming weeks!

        Hi Shashi, yeah WP Recipe Makes does migrate Easy Recipes over automatically, you're right.

        But me being me, and also after the feedback from the SEO audit I had done last year, decided to go through each individual recipe and optimise them accordingly. I know, I'm mad! Ha ha!

        So can't wait until our vacation. Just over a week to go and yes I do hope to get plenty of pictures.

        Thanks again for taking the time to comment Shashi and take care! 🙂

      I must admit-we hate onions in our house. With a passion. But this recipe sounds like a perfect vegetarian addition to the regimen...do you suppose I could replace the onion with a sliced fennel bulb? Slightly different flavor, but similar result?

        Hi Jamie, adding a sliced fennel bulb sounds intriguing!

        I'd love it if you tried it and then commented back here for the benefit of everyone? 🙂

        Thanks too for taking the time to comment.

      Ah hah! Thetre are your potatoes! They look delicious. I love the hint of crispiness on top. So sorry about you having to rewrite your recipes. What a chore!

        Thanks Jeff. I think the only real chore about having to re-write my recipes is having to re-read stuff I wrote up to three years ago that sometimes makes me want to gag. Ha ha! 🙂
