Recipe Tips
- You can always place raw bacon into the slow cooker instead of pre-cooked bacon. However, it won’t have that delicious crispy taste as fried bacon does.
- Swapping the potatoes for a different variety, such as sweet potato, will radically change the outcome. Indeed, something to try if you love experimenting a little.
- If you’re worried the potatoes are uncooked, then you can check them by simply using a cake skewer. Simply skewer the potato, and if it goes in easily, the potato is cooked and ready to eat.
- Mixing up the cheese you use is a great way to get some very different tasting potatoes. A few kinds of cheese you can try adding include some brie, mozzarella, goats cheese, or even some gouda cheese.
- Turn the slow cooker to high and cook for three to four hours if you want this dish faster.
