Summary Joyce Vankirk says: This is a recipe my mother has made for all of us for so long. I can actually say I have no idea where it came from but I do know it’s been in my family for a very long time. The only thing I can say about it is you have to taste it to understand why I love this recipe.
I have never eaten “Potato Pie.” It sounds interesting Joyce! Thanks for the recipe and also for taking the extra time to shoot the photos.
