1 lb. hamburger
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped (optional)
1 1/2 tsp. salt, divided
1/2 tsp. pepper
2 Tbsp. butter
6 medium potatoes (about 2 1/4 lb.)

In a 12-inch stove-top skillet or electric skillet over medium heat, brown hamburger with onion, green peppers, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Melt butter. Spread potatoes, (which have been peeled and finely shredded) over butter and sprinkle with remaining salt. Top with meat mixture. Combine eggs and milk; pour over all.
