By crisscut

Ingredients

• 8 medium potatoes, about 3 lbs., peeled & cut into 1" chunks
• 1 cup evaporated 2% milk
• 1/2 cup light sour cream
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
• 6 slices turkey bacon, cooked until crispy & crumbled
• sliced green onions

Preparation

Step 1

Place the potato chunks into a large saucepan. Fill with enough water to cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil. Cook over medium-high heat for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender. Drain.

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 3 quart casserole dish. Return potatoes to the saucepan. Add evaporated milk, sour cream, salt and pepper. Beat with a hand held mixer until smooth. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of cheddar cheese and half of the bacon. Spoon the potato mixture into prepared casserole dish.

Place into the oven and bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes or until heated through. Top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese, remaining turkey bacon, and green onions. Bake for an additional 3 minutes or until cheese has melted.
