I have added some new recipes to my list so take a look.  We are off to Peru the end of August and I understand that the Peruvians have a "love affair" with potatoes.  Check back in early September as I will have some recipes to share.  Please feel free to send me your favorite dish - regina@granniesonsafari.com and I will post it on our site.  Happy cooking!
