Lazy Potato Skins

4/9/2016

2 Comments

 
Every girl has a quick go-to recipe that is just a help because it saves time, and effort.  This one is mine.  My children and hubby love it when I make potato skins, but they are pretty labor intensive, hence the birth of this quick and easy side dish that still has most of the flavor of the potato skins, with a fraction of the work involved.

Ingredients:

5-6 large potatoes
1/4 cup olive oil
pre cooked and crumbled bacon
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Garlic powder
Salt 
Pepper

Step #1: Cut your potatoes into medallions and toss into a large bowl
Step #2: Toss potatoes in the olive oil and generously sprinkle salt, pepper, and                         garlic powder over them before laying them single layer on a foil lined 
                 baking sheet.
Step #3: Bake the potato medallions at 350 for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until fork 
                tender.
Step #4: Remove from oven and sprinkle with cheese and bacon then return to oven 
                to rewarm. (just for a few moments so you don't burn your cheese)

Viola!  You have achieved the Lazy Potato!

I tried the recipe and liked it. Made a slight change to parmesan cheese at the very end of cooking vs bacon/cheese combo. It added a different flavor to the potatoes which I liked. I need to work to perfect my cooking technique but definitely one that I will use again. Thanks.

Robert, that sounds delicious too...maybe with pesto and parm cheese? I will have to try that myself!
