Instructions
- Place a large, rimmed baking sheet in the oven. Preheat oven, with the baking sheet in it, to 450°F.
- Add chopped potatoes to a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Stir to coat.
- Add in garlic powder, salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder and hot sauce. Stir to coat again.
- Once oven and pan are preheated, remove pan (be careful, it’ll be hot), and spray with cooking spray or add a drizzle of olive oil. Add potatoes to the pan, and bake about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
- Add cheese and sprinkle with cooked bacon. Return to the hot oven for about 3-5 minutes, until cheese is melted.
- Serve hot, sprinkled with green onions and drizzled with ranch or blue cheese dressing if desired.
Notes
- For even more bacon flavor, cook bacon in a skillet, removing it to a paper towel lined plate to drain and cool. Reserve bacon grease and use that instead of the olive oil. If you don't have enough bacon grease, use what you have, and then use enough olive oil so you end up with 1/4 cup total of oil/grease.
- Garnish with some blue cheese crumbles if you like blue cheese flavor.
- Feel free to add some powdered ranch dressing mix to the seasonings that coat the potatoes (if you like a ranch/buffalo flavor combo).
