Tanya's Cheesy Bacon Potatoes

Recently, our work volume was too high 

to have our already planned Potluck at work...

but then..it was on again!  

In a couple of hours of preparation, 

we ended up with fried chicken, BBQ, baked beans, 

pasta salad, and an array of desserts !  

Not bad for a cancelled Potluck!  

My friend, Tanya, brought a most wonderful 

potato recipe that I must share today!  

It was simple and all around deliciously amazing...

Hope you enjoy!

Tanya's Cheesy Bacon Potatoes

2 Pkg Red potato mix--make according to pkg directions

1/2 stick butter

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup whipping cream 

12 oz bacon fried and crumbled

2 cups shredded Mexican cheese

Make potatoes according to package directions.  

Add butter, sour cream, bacon and  

1 cup of the shredded cheese; stir to combine.  

Pour the potatoes in your crock pot if you're needing 

them later in the day and wanting them to be delicious!  Sprinkle the remaining cup of shredded cheese on top 

and place under broiler until cheese is all melted.  

Place lid on crock pot and keep warm on low.  

If you're serving them immediately, 

you can place the potatoes in your casserole dish, 

pour the shredded cheese on top and broil.
