SWISS POTATO SQUARES

Swiss Potato Squares image

Meet the Cook: To vary these squares, you can substitute cheddar cheese for the Swiss or try Canadian bacon in place of the ham. However you can make them, they taste wonderful reheated in the microwave. So you can serve the squares warm as leftovers, pack them in a thermal lunch carrier or put them on a potluck table. -Nancy Foust, Stoneboro, Pennsylvania
