By: Ruth  
"My father would throw this together. He used prepackaged diced potatoes and frozen onions and peppers until we turned him on to fresh. I've also see this done with boiled potatoes that are then coarsely grated & chunked."

Ingredients

  • 4 large Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 6 tablespoons butter

  • 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
