Dutch Oven Cheesy Potatoes

What you will need:

1 lb bacon
3 to 4 onions diced
5 lbs potatoes
1 lb cheddar cheese grated
1 pint sour cream
salt and pepper

Fry bacon until crisp in 12" oven.  Remove from oven, but leave drippings.  Add onions to bacon grease and cook until clear.  Add potatoes, bacon, and salt and pepper to taste.  Stir to coat the potatoes with grease.  Cover and cook for 1 hour (350F).  8 coals on bottom, 17 on top.  Carefully fold in cheese and sour cream, cook for 10 more minutes.

We love to eat these potatoes anytime we go camping.  They are very yummy (not healthy but yummy), and easy to do.  Sometimes I even make them for dinner if I have potatoes at home that I need to use.  They are just as good baked in the oven.  Hope you enjoy!

Potato Casserole (Crock-Pot)

My life has been so crazy busy lately, that is why I keep posting crock-pot recipes. I love them; they make life so much easier! This a kind of a version of "funeral potatoes" as we like to call them. They are pretty good. I prefer the ones baked in the oven more but if you are in a hurry, these are a great side to a dinner.


What You Need:

1 can (10 1/2 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup plus3 tablespoons butter, melted and divided
1 teaspoon of salt
2 pounds of potatoes, peeled and chopped
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 to 2 cups of stuffing mix

1. Combine soup, sour cream, onion, 1/4 cup butter, and salt in a small bowl.

2. Combine potatoes, and cheese in slow cooker. Pour soup mixture over potato mixture; mix well. Sprinkle with stuffing mix over potato mixture; drizzle with remaining 3 tablespoons of butter.

3. Cover; cook on LOW 8 to 10 hours or on HIGH 5 to 6 hours until potatoes are tender.

Makes 8 to 10 servings
