COOK TIME

Rich-tasting, creamy comforting Cheddar, Potato, and Bacon Gratin is easy as can be to make. Just throw all the ingredients in your slow cooker and let it do the work for you.

What You'll Need

  • 2 (10.75-ounce) cans Cheddar cheese soup, undiluted
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 2 (20-ounce) packages refrigerated sliced potatoes
  • 12 fully cooked bacon slices, crumbled
  • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 3 tablespoons butter

What to Do

  1. In a small bowl, combine soup, garlic powder, and pepper.
     
  2. Layer half the potatoes in a 3-1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker that's been coated with cooking spray; sprinkle with half the bacon, and pour half the soup mixture evenly over potatoes. Repeat layers, ending with soup mixture; sprinkle shredded cheese over top, and dot with butter.
     
  3. Cover and cook on HIGH setting 2-1/2 hours, or until potatoes are fork-tender. Let stand 10 minutes then serve.

I've made this before, though not with a slow cooker. I've also often used the refrigerated hash brown potatoes rather than the sliced. Bacon is almost always included. It's as much comfort food to me as a nice hot dish of macaroni and cheese. I'll have to try this particular recipe out with our slow cooker. It's a great side dish to make and I've found it very well received for potlucks.

You can but it will take twice as long to cook.

Sounds delicious, but WAAAAY too much salt.

Is there any reason why I couldn't use fresh sliced potatoes instead of refrigerated?
