Skillet Potatoes with Bell Peppers and Garlic

Today is National Garlic Day and I went all in with this recipe for skillet potatoes from Anita O. that I found on the Taste of Home website. There are 12 whole cloves of garlic in this recipe!

I used a bag of multicolored potatoes that included gold, red and purple. I also did half red bell pepper and half yellow bell pepper because I had them leftover from another dish.

It's pretty enough that you can serve it right in the skillet, I love the pops of red and yellow and purple. Or you can transfer it to a serving bowl. Look at that big whole clove of caramelized garlic right on top!
