Daddy's Delight #2 - Mr. Potato Mess

This is what happens when my husband gets in the kitchen. I can guarantee that you will not find this recipe on any diet plan. However, if you like beef, potatoes, cheese and fried onions - you will LOVE this! I can guarantee that. :)

On top of being disgustingly delicious, it is also "easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy" to make!
