Expert Tips

Potatoes are a root vegetable that grow in the ground. Eating the skin of potatoes provides fiber that helps with digestion.

Avoid overcooking the potatoes as they will fall apart. You should be able to just pierce the potatoes with a fork when they are done.

One small bell pepper, coarsely chopped (1/2 cup), can be used for the olives.
