German Potato Macaroni Dish

Several years ago my wife worked with a very nice woman from Germany. The nice lady often brought homemade foods to work for lunch and often shared with everyone in the office. One day she brought a dish she called potato macaroni and it was so good everyone asked for the recipe. So, here it is for you to try:

Ingredients

2 large or 4 medium potatoes
1 package elbow macaroni
1 dash of salt
1 dash of pepper
1 onion
fresh chives cut into small pieces
1/2 package of swiss cheese or several slices
1 slice of mozzarella cheese (optional)
2 Tablespoons of butter or margarine
Sour cream (optional)
2 slices of bacon, turkey bacon or ham (optional)

Wash, Peel (optional) and cut up potatoes into small pieces. Bring potatoes to a boil over high heat.

Add a pinch of salt to the water. Boil potatoes for approximately 15 minutes. Add macaroni to water and continue to boil for about 8 to 10 minutes. In a separate skillet, Add butter or cooking oil and cook the onions until browned. Add the chives and continue to cook for a few minutes. Drain the potatoes and macaroni. Return the potatoes and macaroni to the pan. Stir in the chives, onions, swiss cheese, bacon and sour cream. Add salt and pepper to taste.
