The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

If you're grilling your main course already then this potato side dish recipe is a breeze to add to your meal.

2 pounds Idaho potatoes, scrubbed, unpeeled, sliced 1/2-inch thick or in wedges
salt
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup grated Cheddar cheese, optional
Preheat a grill to medium heat.
Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced potatoes and boil for 4 minutes. Drain the potatoes well then transfer to a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss gently to coat the potatoes in the oil.
Place the potato slices on the grill and cook for 3 minutes per side. Once the potatoes are turned over, top each slice with some grated cheese (if desired). Grill just until the cheese melts then remove the potatoes from the grill and serve immediately.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
