Delicious Potato Bacon Casserole Recipe for Family Meals

Ingredients

Servings:
8
  • 4 cups potatoes, sliced (Use russet or Yukon gold for best results.)
  • 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (Any variety of bacon can be used.)
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (Feel free to substitute with other cheese types.)
  • 1 cup sour cream (Can use light sour cream for a healthier option.)
  • 1 cup cream of mushroom soup (Homemade or canned both work well.)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (Enhances the flavor of the casserole.)
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder (Optional for extra flavor.)

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    This ensures even baking.
  2. Prepare Baking Dish

    Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.

    This prevents sticking.
  3. Layer Ingredients

    In the baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes, followed by half of the bacon, half of the cheese, and half of the sour cream mixture.

    Repeat the layers with remaining ingredients.
  4. Mix Cream of Mushroom Soup

    In a bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup with garlic powder and onion powder.

    This adds flavor to the casserole.
  5. Add Soup Mixture

    Pour the soup mixture evenly over the layered ingredients.

    Ensure it's evenly distributed.
  6. Bake

    Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour.

    Remove the foil in the last 15 minutes to brown the top.
  7. Serve

    Let the casserole sit for 10 minutes before serving.

    This allows the layers to set.
