This month I’m making a conscientious effort to spice up our side dishes!
It’s so easy to focus on the main dish of our meal then throw a side or two together without much thought. In all actuality our sides should really be thought of as the main dish, full of fresh, wholesome vegetables that take up the majority of the plate.
With that said, here’s a quick casserole that came together with very little effort, and it tastes as good as it looks!
Ingredients
6 – Potatoes
1/4 Cup – Unsalted Sweet Butter
1/2 Cup – Shredded Cheese
3 Strips – Bacon, Cooked (Crispy)
Chives (Dried)
Salt & Pepper
Instructions
- Peel and cube potatoes, and cook until tender (~20 min.).
- Cook bacon until crispy and set aside on paper towel.
- Drain potatoes and add to a casserole dish.
- Pour melted butter over the potatoes and season with salt and pepper.
- Top with shredded cheese, crumble bacon then add chives.
- Bake in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
And I could eat this every week…
Happy Eating!
Please leave a link to your favorite side dish recipe in the comments!
This looks so yummy!
Oh my! I need to add these to my meal rotation!
You make a very good point about side dishes. I find myself doing the same. Throwing something quick together last minute or skipping the side dish altogether. Yikes! These potatoes look delicious! Thanks for sharing! I don't have a fav side dish link to share with you but will say a simple lettuce salad with quick toppings of chees and tomato usually does the trick for us!
I've totally printed this and absolutely cannot wait to try it! It sounds so yummy!
This is definitely a must try…I'm a sucker for potatoes!
New Delicious easy recipe everyone enjoyed, simple, fast.
tell what kind of cheese
Use your favorite cheese! Cheddar would work well, but I used mozzarella because that is what I have in my fridge.
Definitely gonna make this.
And I was pleased to see the potatoes weren’t drowned in cheese. A lot of recipes today
Totally cover everything and anything in cheese.
Thank you.
Making these tonight, my husband loves baked potatoes but most the time I have to go buy the larger so for me this is perfect 🙂
What about making it in advance?
Great recipe, I also sprinkled dry ranch dressing on the top of the potatoes before I put in the oven. Super quick and easy!
I liked this recipe. I love potatoes and it was nice to find something that was not drowning in cream of something condensed soup and sour cream. I like those too but this recipe you can prepare much more often.
These look yummy! In fact I have them in oven now😁
Trying this tomorrow for Memorial kick off cookout. Easy and the kids will love it!
Please don’t peel the potatoes.
This looks delish! I’m going to make this soon! Thanks so much for sharing!
