Loaded Bacon and Cheese Potatoes

Loaded Bacon and Cheese Potatoes is a marvelous side dish. This delightful recipe uses a red, white and blue potato medley. Well, perhaps closer to red, yellow and blue! And, of course, there’s lots of cheese and bacon. It’s a terrific casserole dish for family, company or holiday dinners. And the nice thing about this casserole is that it reheats wonderfully, so you can enjoy leftovers during the week. 🙂

We made this side dish for company back in May. I had just taken it out of the oven and got about eight pictures when my camera literally died! I’ve had that Canon since 2013! But I’ve taken about 150,000 pictures in that time so apparently the shutter went kaput! I didn’t get the rest of the pictures until a few days later after I went out and bought another camera.

What a nightmare! I had my previous camera set exactly the way I liked it (I’m not a professional photographer). But I’m learning my way with this camera and the settings that work well are very different from my old camera. Even still, I’m glad I was able to get pictures (FINALLY), of this delicious dish without having to remake the whole recipe. Granted, the pictures would have been better piping hot out of the oven, but that’s the way it goes.

While this scrumptious casserole is not low on calories, it’s phenomenal in taste and is one of those side dishes that everyone will love. I actually found this recipe as a grilled recipe. We were grilling chicken that night, but I decided to bake it in the oven instead. I served it with Grilled Chicken, Butternut Squash Red Pepper Casserole and Magic Raspberry Cobbler. Yum.

You can use any kind of potato in this recipe. I think you can use just about any kind of cheese like Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, Gouda, Havarti or parmesan, but I would include some Cheddar along with it. The same goes for the bacon. It’s worth trying jalapeno bacon, pepper bacon and some of the others if you enjoy those flavors.

Regardless, Loaded Bacon and Cheese Potatoes should be on your holiday menus this year. Give it a try the next time you grill steaks, fish, pork chops or chicken and you’ll be drooling over all that deliciousness. 🙂
