Yukon Gold Baked Potatoes with Seasoned Butter

Yukon Gold Baked Potatoes with Seasoned Butter is the ultimate side dish to a grilled steak. Nothing better than a hot baked potato swimming in melting butter. Delicious! Baked potatoes themselves are low in calories, its everything else that one puts on a baked potato that packs in the calories. Butter, sour cream, gravy, bacon, shredded cheese, chopped green onions so on and so forth but there are times when its so worth the calories.

Seasoned Butter

Seasoned butter is fast, easy and delicious. All that is needed is a stick of butter, real butter please, and any seasoning blend or spices you like. We like to use a 16 spice smokey seasoning blend, Cajun or Creole seasoning blend, Italian seasoning or even plain ‘ol garlic powder. Seasoned butter can be put on a baked potato, grilled steak, baked fish, vegetables, corn-on-the-cob, rolls and/or just about anything you can think of.
