Slow Cooker Garlic Parmesan Potatoes


I found a recipe for these online at The Magical Slow Cooker. 
I made a few adjustments and the results are awesome.  This is a great side to put on in the morning and have ready when you come home from work or running errands.  It, also, frees-up the stove top and oven when you have lots of other dishes to prepare.
 
3 lbs. red potatoes about 8 cups after being cut
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 Tablespoons minced garlic (can use fresh garlic or jarred)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (Kraft shaker kind is fine)
2 Tablespoons margarine or butter
½ cup fresh shredded Parmesan cheese
 
Clean and cut your potatoes in wedges (four pieces per potato). Do not peel. 
Spray slow cooker.  Place potatoes in cooker.
Mix olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.  Pour over potatoes and mix to thoroughly coat all potatoes.  Shake/sprinkle grated Parmesan on top of potatoes.  Cover with lid and cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 4-5 hours.  Don’t remove the lid the entire time.  When ready to serve, add margarine/butter and fresh Parmesan cheese and lightly toss to coat. 
 
NOTE:  You may substitute Yukon gold potatoes or fingerlings but don’t use Russet potatoes; they will fall apart and be mushy.
