Slow Cooker Cheesy Bacon Ranch Potatoes

All of the flavors combine to create these delicious potatoes.  A delicious side for any meal. Thank you The Recipe Critic



4 Medium sized potatoes or 6-8 small red or yellow potatoes

1 large onion, thinly sliced

½ pound bacon, 1 pound makes it that much better :)

2½ cups shredded cheddar cheese

1 package dry ranch seasoning packet

2 T butter

½ cup sliced green onions

 

• Cook the bacon until it is just done but not too crisp.
• 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 cooking spray and layer half of the potatoes along the bottom.
• Next layer with half of the bacon, green onions, onion, ranch packet and top with cheese.
• Repeat the layers and top with cheese reserving ½ cup.
• Cover the potatoes with 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 remaining ½ cup cheese and let melt on the top.
• Garnish with fresh green onions if desired.
