Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 pounds of Red Skinned or Idaho Potatoes washed and cut into bite sided pieces
  • 1/4 pound of Bacon + grease
  • Morton's Natures Seasoning Salt
  • 2 tablespoons of Butter
  • 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 4 green onions sliced
  • Sour Cream

Instructions
 

  • Place potato pieces on a baking sheet, drizzle melted butter and olive oil over potatoes, sprinkle generously with Morten's Natures Seasoning Salt. Spead evenly on pan, place in preheated oven. Bake for 25 minutes, occasionally giving potatoes a flip so all sides are baked evenly.
  • While potatoes are baking, fry up your bacon, and reserve the bacon fat. Chop bacon into little bits.
  • Some where in the middle of baking your potatoes, take them out of the oven and drizzle some of this bacon fat over them, give them a toss with a spatula or you can just give the pan a violent jiggle...if you feel confident doing that sort of potato jiggling. Continue to bake potatoes until they are nice and brown and crispy.
  • Crowd potatoes together on pan, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously over roasted potatoes.
  • Spread bacon on top of cheese, pop pan back in the oven until cheese is melted and bubbling. Sprinkle with sliced green onions and serve with sour cream on the side.
