This type of recipe reminds me of my mom, and how she always tried to make the most of my father’s salary to feed all 8 of us (my three brothers, four sisters, and I). Potatoes were always in our grocery list, and my mom would add them to almost anything you can think of. She would make scrambled eggs with potatoes, rice with potatoes, potato tacos, potato patties, tuna potato patties, potato soups, potatoes with chorizo, etc. Additionally, any stew she prepared was bound to have potatoes in it, too!
Nowadays, my mother’s glaucoma has affected her sight and kept her from cooking like she used to, but that doesn’t stop her from telling us (my sisters & I) how we should cook certain recipes.
