I made these last night (was looking for a way to use some of my garden habaneros). I should have seasoned my potatoes more with salt & pepper. I couldn’t bring myself to use mozzarella, so I used Monterey Jack and medium cheddar. I think this would turn out better all mixed up with cheese and top with more cheese and bake. Hubby loved it, so I’ll make it again. It went well with cheese enchiladas. Potatoes are in back on plate.
