Time 50m

Yield 6-8 , 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 large potatoes, peeled and diced
1 head cauliflower, chopped
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
salt
pepper
1 red pepper, diced fine
3 scallions, diced fine
1 medium onion, dice fine
3 slices bacon, chopped and sauteed
salt
pepper
1 1/2 cups shredded swiss cheese
1 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon butter, melted

Steps:

  • Potato and Cauliflower Layer -- In a large pot of boiling salted water on medium high heat, cook the potatoes for about 10 minutes and then add the cauliflower and cook another 5 minutes under tender. Remove from the heat and drain. Using a potato masher or even just a fork, slightly mash. I like to do a rough mash for this dish. Add, salt, pepper, milk and butter and set to the side.
  • Bacon, Pepper and Onion Layer -- In a medium saute pan, add the bacon and saute until crisp. Remove and let it drain on a paper plate lined with a paper towel. In the same pan, use the bacon drippings (no more than 1 teaspoon, you don't want too much oil) to cook the onion and red pepper red pepper until tender. Once the onion and pepper are done add the scallions, salt and pepper to taste and remove from the heat, drain if necessary (you don't want this oily) and set to the side.
  • Cheese and Crumb Mixture -- In a small bowl, add the melted butter, bread crumbs and cheese and mix well to combine.
  • Casserole -- In a casserole dish, spray with non stick spray and heat the oven to 375. Add a layer on the potato cauliflower mix; then a layer of the bacon, pepper and onions; then a layer of the cheese and bread crumb mix. Next, again, the potato cauliflower; bacon, pepper and onions; and then the cheese and bread crumbs.
  • Bake -- Thirty (30) minutes until golden brown and bubbly. This is a great side dish and makes a great presentation when you cut into it and serve.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Side Dish     Potato Side Dish Recipes     Potatoes Au Gratin Recipes

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon butter
3 pounds whole russet potatoes
12 ounces thick cut bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 large onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
½ cup dry white wine
¾ cup creme fraiche
1 (16 ounce) round Reblochon cheese or other ripe, washed rind cheese

Steps:

  • Boil unpeeled potatoes with salt in water over high heat; reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are easily pierced with a knife but are not too soft, 15 to 25 minutes depending on size. Remove potatoes from water to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Cook bacon in a skillet over medium to medium-high heat until cooked but not quite crisp and most of the fat is rendered out, 5 to 7 minutes. Push bacon to one side of the pan and blot up some of the fat with a wadded paper towel. Add onion slices. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper and cayenne. Cook and stir over medium heat until onions are soft, sweet, and golden, about 6 minutes. Add white wine; cook for 2 minutes and deglaze pan. Remove from heat.
  • Cut wheel of cheese into 2 semi-circles. Place each half cut side down and split in half to form 2 more semi-circles, each with a rind side and creamy cheese side.
  • When potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel off the skin. Slice into fairly thick slices, about 1/3 inch thick.
  • Place a little over half the potato slices onto bottom of a 2-quart shallow baking dish. A little overlapping is fine. Sprinkle with a bit of salt. Pour in bacon/onion/wine mixture and spread over potatoes in an even layer. Arrange the remaining potato slices over the top, overlapping as needed. Spread creme fraiche over the potatoes. Place down cheese pieces, rind side up. Transfer pan to a baking sheet. Bake in center rack of preheated oven until browned and potatoes are tender, 45 to 50 minutes.

CHEESY HAM & POTATO BACON CASSEROLE RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Cheesy Ham & Potato Bacon Casserole Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by Tarah716

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 red potatoes, chopped
1/3 cup onion, chopped fine
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups cooked ham, chopped
1 1/2 cups broccoli, chopped and steamed
4 ounces neufchatel or light cream cheese, cubed
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
4 slices bacon, cooked

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees and spray an 8x9" baking pan. Fill a pot with water and heat over medium heat. Add the potatoes and boil until tender when pierced with a knife, about 8 minutes. SEE NOTE Drain the potatoes and set aside. In a skillet over medium heat, add the butter and once it begins to melt add the onion. Saute until tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Dump the onion and butter into the pot with the potatoes and add the broccoli, ham and cream cheese. Stir to combine, not worrying about spreading the cream cheese as it should be left in clumps and dump into the baking dish. Top with cheese and bake at 350 degrees fahrenheit for 25 to 35 minutes or until heated through. Top with bacon the last minute and serve! Cook's note: It's key that you cook the potatoes until tender during this step or they will still be too raw even with baking for the dish to be enjoyable.

Tips:

  • For a crispier topping, use shredded cheddar cheese instead of a cheese blend.
  • If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a 9x13 inch baking dish. Just be sure to grease the dish well before assembling the casserole.
  • You can also cook the potatoes in the microwave. Simply place the potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl with 1/2 cup of water and cook on high for 5-7 minutes, or until tender.
  • If you're short on time, you can use frozen hash browns instead of fresh potatoes.
  • To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble it and refrigerate it overnight. Then, bake it the next day according to the recipe instructions.

Conclusion:

This Bacon Cheese and Potato Casserole is a delicious and hearty dish that's perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying meal, give this casserole a try!
