If you don't have time to cube potatoes, use purchased refrigerated cubed potatoes instead such as potatoes O'Brian. Also add your favorite cheese to really kick it up as well as a salsa or Jalapeno for heat! Serve with Tortillas for the more Mexican feel or toast and no salsa for the gringos! :o) I found this recipe in an old Betty Crocker cookbook. So all the credit goes to BC...but I tweaked it to make it my own! ;)
