Peppy Potato Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
• Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Place the potatoes and salt in a pressure cooker with water to cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer the potatoes until very tender, about 5 minutes. (If you do not have a pressure cooker, boil the potatoes in a pot of water with a pinch of salt until tender, about 20 minutes.)
• While the potatoes boil, cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the bacon on paper towels and, when cool enough to handle, crumble it into small pieces. Set aside.
• Add the milk, mayonnaise, sour cream, butter, garlic salt, pepper and 1 cup of the cheese to a stand mixer with a paddle attachment. Whip the mixture until thoroughly combined. Drain the potatoes and add to the mixer. Mix again to combine and the potatoes are whipped smooth.
• Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and remaining 1 cup cheese over the top and bake until the cheese is melted and the casserole is heated through, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 1 1/2 to 2-quart baking dish and sprinkle with just a bit of the shallot.
• Add the heavy cream to a medium saucepan along with the remaining shallot, garlic, salt and pepper. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer while stirring. Let simmer until you see the liquid begin to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Layer 1/3 of the sliced potatoes in the baking dish, cover with some Cheddar and a sprinkling of Parmesan; repeat the layering 2 more times.
• Pour the hot liquid over the potatoes. Add the remaining cheese, cover with foil, and bake for 1 hour, then remove the foil to bake until the cheese is golden and brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing so it can settle.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.
• Peel potatoes and thinly slice (about 1/16 inch thick), then toss with butter, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Spread evenly in a 2-quart shallow baking dish and add broth. Cover tightly with foil and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until top is well-browned and most of stock is absorbed, 30 to 35 minutes more.

Steps:

• Defrost potatoes, melt butter, and mix together all ingredients.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour in a 9x13 baking dish.
• From Carol, I sprinkle it with paprika before baking.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Spray a 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking dish with nonstick pan coating or grease lightly with solid shortening.
• Cut baked potatoes into 1 inch cubes. Place half in a prepared baking dish; sprinkle half of the salt, pepper and bacon. Top with half of the sour cream & cheese.
• Repeat layers.
• Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted (It usually takes 30 minutes for me. Also, you can cover with foil if the cheese starts to brown too quickly).
• Sprinkle with chopped green onions to garnish.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
• Mix Cheddar cheese, potato soup, sour cream, cream cheese, green onions, garlic, and salt together in a large bowl. Fold potatoes into the mixture; pour prepared casserole dish. Top with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and cheese is golden brown, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Place potatoes on a baking sheet and poke holes in two sides with a fork.
• Coat potatoes with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake for at 425°F (220°C) for 45 minutes.
• Remove potatoes from oven, and let cool. Chop into 1-inch (2 ½ cm) pieces.
• Lay half of the potatoes on the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish.
• Sprinkle on half of the bacon, spread half of the sour cream, and sprinkle on half of the cheese.
• Repeat for a second layer.
• Bake for 20 minutes at reduced temp of 350°F (180°C), or until cheese is golden brown and the edges start crisping up.
• Sprinkle with chives.
• Enjoy!
