Slow Cooker Cheesy Bacon Ranch Potatoes

Steps

1. Cook the 1 large thinly sliced onion½ pound bacon until it is cooked but not too crisp. ( I lined a cookie sheet with foil and baked it at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 16 minutes.)

2. Line your slow cooker with aluminum foil. Leave enough to over hang so that you can wrap the potatoes on the top once in the slow cooker.

3. Spray the inside of the foil with non-stick cooking spray and layer half of the 1 pound halved baby potatoes along the bottom. Next layer with half of the cooked bacon, half of the 1 large thinly sliced onion, half of the ½ cup sliced green onions, half of the 1 package dry ranch seasoning packet, and top with half of the 2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese.

4. Repeat the layers and top with cheese, reserving 1/2 cup. Pour 2 tablespoons melted butter over the top of everything.

5. Cover the potatoes with the remaining foil. This helps them to steam and cook perfectly. Cook on low for 4-6 hours in your slow cooker. Once finished, top with the reserved ½ cup of cheese and let it melt on the top.

6. Garnish with fresh green onions if desired.
