Loaded Potato Stacks Recipe for Competition

I just took "The Ordinary Extraordinary Potato Recipe Contest" from FoodNetMag.com!

I took the idea of a good old fashioned loaded baked potato and turned it on it's head, creating a beautiful "stack" of deliciousness. Wish me luck!



Loaded Potato Stacks Recipe
(serves 4)

Ingredients:

2-3    large red potatoes
4       slices bacon – cooked and crumbled
¼ C  green onion – diced
2 T   olive oil
8 oz  cream cheese – softened
¼ C  sour cream
¼ C  shredded cheddar – chopped small
3 T   Dijon mustard
         salt and pepper

Directions:
  1. Wash potatoes and remove any eyes and blemishes. Cut off the ends of each potato. Slice the rest of the potatoes into 1/2” thick slices, you will need 12 slices total.
  2. In a bowl, toss the 12 potato slices with the olive oil, salt and pepper, coating well. Place the prepared potatoes on a cookie sheet and bake at 350° for 30 minutes, turning over once during cooking time.


  1. In a standing mixer whip together the cream cheese, sour cream, Dijon mustard and chopped cheddar until smooth and creamy. Place cheese mixture into a piping bag.




  1. To assemble the potato stacks, start with one potato slice topped with 2 T of the cream cheese mixture. Add another potato slice and top with 2 T of the cream cheese mixture. Add the last potato slice and top with 1 T cream cheese mixture. Garnish with the crumbled bacon and green onions. Repeat for all 4 servings. Serve immediately.



Voila! A gorgeous side dish that is scrumptious and surprisingly easy! Bring a little fancy to a classic side dish. Enjoy!
