These were "hiding"  in a cabinet in my kitchen: Del Monte Sliced Potatoes  and Del Monte Tomatoes No Salt Added. Both items were a few days away from their expiration dates. I know that most canned goods are "good" long past that date. But I still don't like to mess around with "freshness" -- and I wanted to use them. FAST.  So I tossed the tomatoes into a big deep frying pan and sizzled them in their own lovely juiciness for a few minutes, along with LOTS of  Mrs. Dash Garlic and Herb Seasoning and Mrs. Dash Italian Medley Seasoning. A lot. BIG SHAKINGS into the pan. They smelled wonderful. When the juice started to disappear from around the tomatoes I put in the potatoes and let them sizzle. Took about 15 minutes, from can-opening beginning to slurping-off-the-plate end. Here's what they look like:

They were soooooooo good! And guess who came into the kitchen to check out the scent?

Those of you who like things with more salt -- I don't  -- would need to add some, I think. And if you felt like fiddling around with onions and peppers, well, great! I was in a hurry and wanted to use only what was right there, getting OLD in the cabinet.

Worked great!
