2 cups frozen chopped green bell peppers (1 1/2 large)
1 cup thinly sliced and chopped low-fat, lower-sodium ham (about 4 ounces)
1 cup frozen chopped onion or 2 medium onions, chopped

2 Tbsp. water

Cooks Tip on Red Potatoes:
Be sure to use red potatoes in this recipe. They are considerably moister and hold their shape better than other varieties.
