6 to 8 red potatoes (washed, peeled and sliced)
1 envelope Lipton onion soup mix
3 TBSP melted butter
1/8 tsp. pepper (or more to your taste)
2 TBSP water

Grease a 2 qt. microwave safe casserole dish with Pam. In a large bowl add 1/2 of the envelope of onion soup mix, melted butter, pepper and water--stir until mixed. Add sliced potatoes--stir/toss to coat. Pour the mixture into the greased casserole dish. Cover the casserole dish with Saran wrap. Microwave on high for 6 minutes--uncover, stir, re-cover, then microwave on high for 4 to 6 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender. Top with shredded cheese if you wish.
