I just can't leave well enough alone! These were tasty, I did half the recipe because it was just DH and I... I upped the parmesean cheese, and added a clove of minced garlic. I also added to the mix about 2 tablespoons bacon bits and some garlic powder instead of onion powder. I also added some paprika to the potatoes (as well as on top) so they were a pretty color. For the last 10 min of baking time I topped them with a little shredded cheese and more bacon bits. Served them with a dollop of sour cream and they were a hit. So filling! For easier clean up I just lined a baking sheet with foil.

These are so good! I made them early in the afternoon and then baked them right before my husband got home from work. I still have a couple in the fridge that I plan on having for lunch tomorrow! I only made a couple substitutions, and that was plain yogurt instead of sour cream and onion flakes instead of onion powder. I'll definitely be making these again! Thanks!
