Here is one of many potato dishes that we enjoy. I created this dish quite awhile ago and it always pleases the taste buds. This casserole is very quick and easy to make, with dynamite results. The tasty potatoes are flavorful, tender and very delicious. You won't be sorry you tried this dish, there are never any leftovers.
