Crockpot Cheese and Bacon Potatoes

Crockpot Bacon Cheese Potatoes are amazing! This is hands down the most requested recipe that I make. My family loves potatoes and since I found out I have Celiac Disease I use them as a staple in our house. I love that this recipe is naturally Gluten Free (just be sure your ingredients are). I personally use hormel bacon (Natural).

Use this tip on cooking your bacon in the oven to keep it crispy.

Ingredients

• 1/4 pound bacon diced - I bake it first in the oven so that it is "done" and browned then I dice it and place in the crock pot.
• 1 small onion thinly sliced
• 6 - 8 whole red potatoes quartered (thinly sliced if using regular potatoes or if you use a new potato then halve)
• 1/2 pound cheddar cheese thinly sliced (shredded is fine)
• dash salt and pepper
• butter
• 1 bunch Green Onions optional

Instructions

1. Line crockpot with foil, leaving enough to cover the potatoes when finished - this will help to not stick and to steam the potatoes.
2. Layer half each of the bacon, onions, potatoes and cheese in crockpot. Season to taste with salt and pepper and dot with (real) butter.
3. Repeat layers of bacon, onions, potatoes and cheese. Dot with butter.
4. Cover with remaining foil.
5. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours.

Recipe Notes

Do not use as much onion if using green onions. I only used a 1/2 an onion.
