An easy dish that can be served with soup and/or salad for dinner or alone (maybe with grapes) as a snack for later on. I made it for dinner when we had friends over and everyone loved them.

I think this is great, thanks so much. I didn't know that potatoes came in cans. I'm going to just chop my own up. The lamb sounds so good too.
