CALICO POTATOES

One time when we went to Silver Dollar City they had something similar to this there, but it had sausage in it. I came up with my version minus the sausage to be used as a side dish.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large sweet potatoes
2 or 3 large baking potatoes (you want about an equal amount of each type of potato)
1 med or large green pepper/red pepper
1 large sweet onion
1 stick butter or marjarine
4 tsp salt (more if needed)
1 tsp pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Peel all potatoes. In large pan fitted with a lid, melt the stick of butter/marjarine on low heat. While butter is melting, cut all potatoes into chunks (whatever your size preference, but the larger the longer to cook).
  • 2. Add potatoes to melted butter and mix well to coat. Cut peppers and onion into chunks as well and add to potatoes. Again, mix to coat.
  • 3. Cover pot over med/low heat to prevent scorching and stir occasionally. Test for tenderness of potatoes. Remove lid when tender to brown slightly if you wish.
