These were good. Next time I will probably peel the potatoes because our little kids did not like the skins in there. I made these with BBQ Round Steak.

Great recipe. If you are a garlic-lover, an extra clove or two couldn't hurt! I substituted fat-free half-and-half for milk for a little extra creaminess. Yum!!

These are awesome. My husband loves potatoes in pretty much any way, shape or form, but he particularly loves red potatoes. This has become his favorite red potato recipe.
