Preparation
    In a large pot, boil diced potatoes for about 15 minutes or just until tender (not mushy!). Drain; then rinse with cold water and drain again. Place drained potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
    Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt butter over med-high heat. Add garlic and leeks and saute just until leeks become tender. Add diced tomato, salt, pepper, paprika and parsley; stir well.

    Stir in evaporated milk, cream cheese, and sour cream until well-blended.
    Stir in shredded cheeses; combine well. Pour over drained potatoes and gently toss to coat.
