  1. Delicious! I love simplicity. And I appreciate the fact that I didn't need a broth. Sorry, I didn't use any nutmeg. That spice is just not up my alley. Tasty enough for me and my kids that I would make it again and again.
     
  2. I doubled the recipe and we had this last night. Ate it again for breakfast. I loved the hint of nutmeg. I actually cooked 1/4 cup of 'pot barley' and added it to the potatoes. I loved the onions and juices on top - but alast hubby didn't, so next time I'll puree and add the onions to the entire pot. Thanks, it was great!
