Notes

Seasoning: You can really use whatever seasoning you want, you could add in some garlic powder as well into the potato mixture or if you like everything to have a kick, add some red pepper flakes.
Variation: If you prefer the texture of shredded potatoes, use a grater to shred your potatoes then boil them until they are tender
Pairing: goes well with pork chops, steaks, salads, and any other meal where you want a cheesy potato side
