* Potato Slabs *

My husband loves potatoes...he's a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy. Therefore, I have to find new ways to cook them so I don't get bored of them (can you believe in live in Idaho?...I'm pretty sure real Idahoans don't get sick of Idaho potatoes). This is super easy and tasty. You could even serve them as an appetizer! Recipe found here.

* Potato Slabs *
2 Russet Potatoes
Salt, to taste
Black Pepper, to taste
Paprika, to taste
1/3 Cup Colby-Jack cheese
5 Slices Bacon, cooked and diced
Green onions for garnish (optional)
Sour cream (optional)

Preheat oven to 375. Clean and scrub potatoes well. Slice the potatoes into 1/4″ thick slices.

Place potatoes on lightly buttered baking sheet and season each side with salt, black pepper, and paprika.

Cook for 30 minutes. Flip potatoes over and cook for an additional 15 minutes.

Remove pan from oven and place a pinch of cheese and bacon on top of each potato round. Return the pan to the oven and cook until cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10 minutes.

Serve with green onions and sour cream, if desired.
