Add potatoes and peas and heat through. You can serve it in a dish or straight from the pot.

Personal Notes:
Mom made this right after I came home from the Hospital with Corbin. Everyone raved about it! I lost her recipe but found this one it's just like it. You can also use 1/2-1 c. canned milk as part of the milk too. A yummy variation is to add cooked crumbled bacon to the top.
