Servings: 8 Servings
Ingredients
- ½ pound bacon
- 1 pound halved baby potatoes
- 1 large thinly sliced onion
- ½ cup sliced green onions
- 2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 package dry ranch seasoning packet
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- Cook the 1 large thinly sliced onion½ pound bacon until it is cooked but not too crisp. ( I lined a cookie sheet with foil and baked it at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 16 minutes.)
- Line your slow cooker with aluminum foil. Leave enough to over hang so that you can wrap the potatoes on the top once in the slow cooker.
- Spray the inside of the foil with non-stick cooking spray and layer half of the 1 pound halved baby potatoes along the bottom. Next layer with half of the cooked bacon, half of the 1 large thinly sliced onion, half of the ½ cup sliced green onions, half of the 1 package dry ranch seasoning packet, and top with half of the 2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese.
- Repeat the layers and top with cheese, reserving 1/2 cup. Pour 2 tablespoons melted butter over the top of everything.
- Cover the potatoes with the remaining foil. This helps them to steam and cook perfectly. Cook on low for 4-6 hours in your slow cooker. Once finished, top with the reserved ½ cup of cheese and let it melt on the top.
- Garnish with fresh green onions if desired.
