jkoch960's Note:

This is a recipe I found in one of my recipe magazines (I think Cook's Country). It is a really nice side dish with grilled meat or fish and, it is a nice alternative to your everyday potatoes.

Oh man was this good!!! So quick and easy, made for a wonderful lunch today, but could definitely see it as a side dish for grilled chicken or beef!! I used Mrs. T's cheddar/potato pierogies as it was what I had on hand and omitted the peas (personal dislike), otherwise followed rest of ingredients. I only made 1/4 of the recipe for my lunch. Will definitely be making these again(maybe add green beans for the peas) and thanks for sharing the recipe!! Made for photo tag!!
