Steps:
- COOK THE BACON: Spread the bacon strips out across a large rimmed baking sheet pan and place on the middle rack of a COLD oven. Set the temperature to 400 degrees. Set a timer for 16 minutes and check the bacon. Remove it from the oven when it is as crisp or crunchy as you like. I remove ours at 18 minutes and it's a great balance of chewy crunch. If you like your bacon crispy enough to crumble, you will probably want to cook it another minute past that.
- COOK THE POTATOES: While the bacon is cooking, peel and chop the potatoes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate to drain. There should be 2-3 tablespoons of bacon grease left on the sheet pan. (If there is more than that, drain off a bit.) Put the potatoes on the pan and toss with tongs to thoroughly coat them in the bacon grease. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer and bake for 20 minutes, stir well and bake an additional 20 minutes. Stir again, making sure that none of the potatoes are sticking to the tray. Bake another 15 minutes.
- Chop the bacon into small pieces. Remove the potatoes from the oven, stir again and sprinkle generously with shredded cheese and chopped bacon. Return the tray to the oven and bake an additional 2-3 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Top with sliced green onions just before serving. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Cook bacon until done, but not crispy. Set aside on paper towels to absorb grease and pat dry. Cut into bite sized pieces when cool.
- Wash potatoes. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add salt to the boiling water, then add the potatoes. Cook for 10-15 minutes in boiling water (the potatoes will finish cooking in the oven). Set aside and allow to cool. Once you're able to work with the half-cooked potatoes, slice them into 1/2" pieces.
- In saucepan, melt butter. Saute the onion slices until just tender; remove from pan and set aside. Making sure you still have enough butter in your pan, stir in flour and milk, whisking until smooth. Cook over low heat, stirring/whisking constantly for 1 minute. Add cheese and continue to stir until cheese melts. Stir in 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Mix in bacon.
- In a buttered 9x13 quart casserole, layer potatoes, onion, and cheese mixture. Continue to add layers until about one inch from the top, finishing off the top layer with the cheese mixture.
- Bake in a preheated 350°F oven, covered, for 45 minutes. Take the cover off of the casserole dish, sprinkle with green onions, and bake for another 5 minutes uncovered. Sprinkle lightly with garlic salt before serving, if desired.

Tips:
- Selecting Potatoes: Choose firm and medium-sized potatoes for even cooking. Yukon Gold, Russet, or Red potatoes are excellent options.
- Cutting Potatoes: To achieve uniform cooking, cut the potatoes into evenly sized wedges or cubes. This ensures they cook at the same rate.
- Seasoning: Don't be shy with the seasonings! Paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper are classic flavor enhancers. You can also add herbs like thyme or rosemary for an aromatic touch.
- Bacon Bits: For optimal flavor and texture, use crispy bacon bits. You can make your own by cooking bacon strips until crispy and then chopping them into small pieces.
- Cheese Selection: Choose a cheese that melts well and has a bold flavor. Cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend of both are popular choices.
- Cooking Temperature: Bake the potatoes at a high temperature (400°F or 200°C) to ensure they get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
- Baking Time: The cooking time may vary depending on the size of the potato wedges/cubes. Start checking for doneness after 20 minutes by piercing them with a fork. They are ready when they are tender but still hold their shape.
- Crispy Bacon Bits: To achieve crispy bacon bits, cook the bacon strips in a single layer in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes or until desired crispiness.
- Garnish: Before serving, sprinkle some chopped fresh parsley or chives over the cheesy bacon potatoes for an extra pop of color and flavor.
Conclusion:
Cheesy bacon potatoes are a delectable and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a main course. They are easy to make and require minimal ingredients. With the right combination of seasonings, crispy bacon bits, and melted cheese, you can create a dish that will impress your taste buds and satisfy your cravings.
