Potato Rounds

50.   Try 2 new recipes a month (4/33) (more info)

This month went by waayyy to fast. Nothing like waiting until the last day to finish a monthly goal… These are super simple. So much so I almost feel bad counting them as a recipe, however, I wouldn’t have tried them otherwise and I’ve never made them before :) They ended up being a great snack. Tara 9/10

• 2 large baking potatoes
• 6 slices bacon (I used turkey bacon)
  
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

I ended up also using:

• seasoning salt
• garlic powder
• basil
• butter
  

1. Place the potatoes in a large pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender when pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Drain, and cool.
2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crisp. Drain, cool, and crumble.
3. Slice the potatoes into 1/4 inch rounds, and arrange them in a single layer on the baking sheet. Sprinkle a few crumbles of bacon onto each round, then top with some shredded Cheddar cheese. (I also used a little bit of butter and then sprinkled seasoning salt, garlic powder, and basil before added the cheese.)
4. Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cheese is melted and lightly browned.
