This was great. I used waxy yellow potatoes. I also added a can of black beans to the pan with the potatoes. Finally, I topped each serving with a poached egg. Delicious!

Try this variation: Before putting all the toppings on, top each serving with a fried egg (I like mine over easy with the yolk a little runny). Then put on the cheese, salsa and sour cream! Makes a great main dish this way!

I loved these potatoes! I took a shortcut and used thawed hash browns instead of cooking potatoes, otherwise made just as directed - easy and terrific!

Delicious! These go together very quickly and easily. I added 1/2 tsp cumin to the spices and doubled the salt amount. Also, I used Mexican 4-cheese blend cheese. My family loved these...thank you for sharing.
