Story

I added mozzarella cheese by mistake actually the first time we made these potatoes. I thought I had a package of Monterey Jack in my hand and didn't really discover it was mozzarella cheese until I served the potatoes. The potatoes were all nice and goey and stringy like a pizza! I checked out the back of cheese I had thrown out, and sure enough, it was mozarella.
I can't say we were disappointed, especially the kids. I'd have to say these are not only tasty potatoes, but fun! Enjoy!
