The other night HHjr was cooking steak bites {recipe below}
I offered to do potatoes and a salad
and got out my trusty slow cooker to help…
These potatoes are not only an easy side dish for any night of the week,
but are also perfect for solving the holiday challenge
of getting all your food cooked and ready at the same time…
Using a slow cooker keeps the oven free for other dishes,
like your Thanksgiving turkey or Christmas ham!
Prep is easy peasy, slice russet potatoes,
mix sour cream and condensed cheddar cheese soup, grate cheese
and into the pot it goes!
You can use red potatoes too,
and this recipe does not require a mandolin or bleeding knuckles,
just slice the potatoes thinly
Mix sour cream and soup
and season with a dash of Worcestershire,
seasoned salt and fresh black pepper
Grate the cheese~
I used Trader Joe’s Unexpected Cheddar
which is basically a sharp white cheddar mixed with Parmesan
So you can make your own combo with white cheddar and Parmesan
or substitute any flavorful cheese you wish
Now all that’s left to do is layer the ingredients in the slow cooker
Spray your slow cooker well with cooking oil spray
or use a liner for easy clean up
Start with about 1/3 of the potatoes
and place them in an even layer in the bottom of the pot
Spread top with 1/3 of the cheese sauce and sprinkle with 1/3 of the cheese
Repeat layers, and for the last layer,
top the potatoes with the grated cheese first,
then spread the remaining cheese sauce over all
Cover the pot and set it to low
In 7-8 hours you will have a pot full of lovely potatoes!
