This is a wonderfully delicious and versatile recipe. If you are making a cold potato salad and you over cook the potatoes –which I frequently do – just make this complement filled dish. If you are looking for a warm side dish that family and friends will find to be different yet vaguely familiar . . . serve this. Just try it, I guarantee you will love it and it is sooooooo easy!!!
