Potato Medley

5 large russet potatoes, cubed (mine were Idaho potatoes!)
2 cups chopped broccoli
1 Tbs canola oil
2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
cayenne pepper to taste

1) In a large pot, boil the potatoes in enough water to cover for 8 minutes. Add the broccoli and cook until the potatoes are just tender, about 4 or 5 minutes more; drain.
2) Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet. Add the potatoes, broccoli and the remaining ingredients. Cook, stirring, until the potatoes become slightly creamy and the ingredients are heated through, about 7 minutes. Serve hot.

Review: This was yummy, except I added too much cayenne after tasting it to find it was bland. Now, it's super spicy. I like it, though. Mike wasn't too happy with the spice factor, though. I'll have to cut back next time!!

  1. I made this again on 9/1/2010. Unfortunately, I again added too much cayenne pepper. Mike was an unhappy camper, again. :(
