CHEESY SKILLET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Butter a 12-inch cast-iron skillet. Arrange half of the potatoes in the skillet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, half the chives, and half of each of the Gruyère, Cheddar and fontina cheeses. Repeat the layers once.
• Heat the cream, garlic, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a medium saucepan over medium heat until bubbles form around the edges, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the sour cream. Pour the cream mixture over the potatoes in the skillet. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake until the potatoes can be easily pierced with a knife, about 45 minutes.
• Uncover and bake until the cheese is browned and the edges are bubbly, about 15 minutes. Broil for 2 minutes, if desired. Remove the skillet from the oven and sprinkle with more chives before serving.

ROASTED VEGGIE TACO SKILLET

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and light green and white scallions and quickly saute, taking care not to burn the garlic, for 2 minutes. Stir in the green chiles and chili powder and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the roasted veggies, black beans, spinach and corn. Season with salt and pepper and add the salsa. Increase the heat to medium-high and let cook until the spinach and corn thaw and the sauce gently simmers, 10 to 12 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water if necessary, to thin out the sauce.
• Top with the cheese, then cover and let cook until the cheese is fully melted, about 3 minutes. Top with the scallion greens and any other optional garnish. Serve from the skillet with the tortillas.
