Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Idaho Baked Potato Dip.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, grab a large saucepan and toss in your quartered potatoes.
Step 3
Cover them with water and stir in a tablespoon of Montreal Steak Marinade Mix for a burst of flavor.
Step 4
Bring the water to a lively boil, then lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer gently for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until those potatoes are tender enough to be pierced with a fork.
Step 5
Once they’re cooked to perfection, drain the potatoes and return them to the saucepan.
Step 6
Now, it’s time to make them creamy and delicious! Add in some milk, sour cream, half a cup of shredded Cheddar cheese, half of your chopped bacon, and the rest of that tasty Marinade Mix.
Step 7
Use a potato masher or an electric mixer to mash everything together until it’s smooth and creamy—this is where the magic happens! Next, transfer your luscious mashed potato mixture into a 2-quart baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 8
Sprinkle the remaining half cup of Cheddar cheese and the rest of the bacon on top, creating a mouthwatering layer.
Step 9
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 15 minutes, or until it’s heated through and the cheese is gloriously melted and bubbly.
Step 10
When it’s ready, take it out of the oven and sprinkle some finely chopped green onion on top for a fresh finish.
Step 11
Serve it up and enjoy the delightful flavors of your homemade cheesy bacon mashed potatoes!.
