Recipe Introduction
"My husband's Aunt Rita always used to make these tasty potatoes when we went to her house for Christmas. We always went back for seconds if there were any left. They are a family favorite."
List of Ingredients
â—¦ 10 large potatoes
â—¦ 1 (2-ounce) jar pimientos, drained and diced
â—¦ 1 tablespoon chopped onion

Recipe
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring the water to a boil and then reduce the heat. Cover and cook until the potatoes are done.
Peel and dice the potatoes. Place them in a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Mix the pimientos, onion, green pepper, bread, Cheddar cheese, butter, salt and pepper. Pour over the potatoes, mixing well.
