The reason I have not posted any recipes for nearly two weeks is that my week of recipe "winners" was followed by a week of "flops." It usually happens that way...not sure why. This week I am just cooking whatever to try to use up what is left in my pantry (as I usually do at the end of the month). But last night, we had a pretty good side dish, that was born entirely from the need to use up some random leftover ingredients. I had half a bag of potatoes, some shredded cheddar, and bacon...so I tried to go the restaurant-style cheese fries route, and it turned out really well, if I do say so myself. This is super easy. Here's what you need:
BACON CHEESE POTATOES INGREDIENTS
-enough potatoes cut bite-sized to cover a 13x9 dish in a single layer (I used about 1/3 bag of yukon gold potatoes...they are the best...you could use other potatoes, but I make no guarantees that it will be as yummy)
-1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or as much as you want)
-3 or 4 sliced of cooked bacon, crumbled
-1/4 cup olive oil
-garlic salt to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
(1) Preheat your oven to 425. Put your potatoes in the 13x9 dish.
(2) Pour 1/4 cup olive oil over potatoes, and stir them around to coat.
(3) Season with garlic salt.
(4) Bake for 30-40 minutes, until potatoes are done.
(5) Add crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar over the top, and put it back in the oven for a couple minutes just to melt the cheese.
In other news, I tried the crock pot pork chop recipe with chicken, and (as expected) it was equally yummy. So go here for the recipe and just substitute chicken breasts for chops.
