  • 6 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¾ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 3 tsp minced garlic
  • ½ cup chopped onion

Instructions
 

  • Peel and dice potatoes into ½-inch cubes. Cook and crumble the bacon. Shred the cheddar cheese, mince the garlic, and finely chop the onion.
  • Set the oven to 325°F (163°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with non-stick spray or butter.
  • In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes, cheese, bacon, garlic, and onion. Stir in the mayonnaise until fully coated.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer.
  • Bake uncovered for 1 ½ hours. Stir gently halfway if needed. Cover loosely with foil if browning too quickly.
  • Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy hot as a side or a hearty main with salad or grilled veggies.
