A couple of suggestionsn, first this needs salt & pepper. Second, next time I will slice my potatos thinner and make more layers of cheese, bacon and onions. Also I will put the butter on each layer of potatos for the most effect and end with a layer of cheese on top. The flavor combination is good and the dish is very easy to make.

This is to DIE FOR!! I halved the recipe and had no problems. I also ended with cheese on top, and skipped the butter because I figured the cheese would already be oily. The end result was delicious! I can't wait to eat the leftovers!

When I made this, instead of grated cheese, I added a can of Cheddar Cheese soup. Also instead of onions, which I thought I had but didn't haha, I used scallions. I did top it off with the grated cheese. I really enjoyed this recipe. It's even better the next day!
