Game Day Cheesy Potato Bites

25 Jan

Happy New Year!

Am I still allowed to say that?

We’re well into January at this point and I’ve been MIA here for awhile.

My apologies.

I’d originally planned to take a few weeks to just “BE” with my family.

No plans, no agenda, and no deadlines looming.

Then life sort of got busy and here I am halfway through January just getting back to you.

We’re weekend snackers around here.

We like to have munchies when we’re hanging out watching movies

or when it’s game day.

No big meal, just something to keep us satisfied while we have a lazy day.

These cheesy potato bites won’t disappoint.

Jump right in and make some for yourself.

Maybe share with your family too.

 

Game Day Cheesy Potato Bites

3 – 4 Medium potatoes
Olive oil
1 C. Cheddar
1 C. Mozzarella
Bacon Bits
3 – 4 Green onion tops, chopped
Sea Salt

Wash potatoes and pat dry. Leave skin intact and slice approximately 1/2 in thick. Arrange on a baking sheet. Brush tops and bottoms with olive oil. Bake at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes flipping once about 1/2 way through. Remove from oven and sprinkle the cheeses, green onion and bacon bits over each potato round. Top with a pinch of sea salt if desired. Return to oven and continue to bake for another 5-10 minutes, until cheese is melted.

The great thing about this recipe is it’s completely customizable. If you have leftover bacon from breakfast, sure crumble that up and use it instead of the bacon bits. Prefer a different flavor of cheese, feel free to change it up and use your favorites.

Enjoy!
