Slow Cooker Cheesy Bacon Ranch Potatoes!

Ingredients :

6 slices of bacon
3 pounds red potatoes, chopped
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
1 tablespoon of Ranch seasoning and dressing mix
2 tablespoons chopped chives

Itinerary :

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Spread bacon in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Place in oven and bake until bacon is brown and crispy, about 12-14 minutes. Cool before crumbling; set aside.

Line a slow cooker with aluminum foil, leaving enough room to wrap the potatoes and spray with non-stick spray. Place an even layer of potatoes in the slow cooker. Top with cheese, ranch seasoning and bacon, repeating 2 times and reserving 1/2 cup of the cheese.

Cover potatoes with aluminum foil and cook over low heat for 7-8 hours or high heat for 3-4 hours. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese. Cover and cook until cheese is melted, about 1-2 minutes.

Serve immediately, garnished with chives.
