Chef's Notes

Serve topped with BREAKSTONE'S or KNUDSEN Sour Cream, or TACO BELL(R) Thick & Chunky Salsa; If you don't have an ovenproof skillet, wrap the handle of your regular skillet with several layers of foil before using as directed. Remember that all parts of the skillet will be hot when removing it from the oven.

    A really good breakfast idea! After a ham dinner with scallop potatoes I made this.. very easy and delicious!! Thank you, will certainly make again!

It's super-easy and I will definitely be - Read more ...

    Maybe it was the texture of the potatoes but I really didn't like it.
