Hobo Hash (Oamc)

This is a quick and easy dish to prepare and is one of the great comfort foods. I've had the recipe so long I don't remember where I got it. I freeze the leftovers one cup at a time in sandwich size zip lock bags and then collect the small bags into a dated and labeled gallon zip lock bag. Thaw, heat, and serve with a garden salad, a baguette, and a nice chianti.
