OMG, these were ridiculously good. Cheese, potatoes, bacon and onion...how can you go wrong? I used Monterey Jack and threw in some Caso fresco I had in the fridge. I also cranked up the oven to 400 degrees for the last 20 minutes and got a wonderful crisp top. Perfect. Thank you.

    My family loved this. I added garlic randomly as I layered. I also omitted the bacon and brie cheese. I used old cheddar cheese (2cups) and added Parmesan after the first layer. AWESOME. Mine took 1 hour 20 mins to cook. Ty Rita.

    I used smoked cheese (pepperjack and cheddar) and I sauteed the onions with the bacon instead of including them raw. This gave the dish a wonderful, smoky, caramelized flavor. The dish was a huge hit. Cook time was right on and the sauce to potato ratio was also good. 15min prep time is ambitious unless you use pre-shredded cheese and pre-sliced potatoes.

    Sooo yummy!! I usually eat vegan so I tried to resist this, but I couldn't help but have a bite! I made this dish this morning for Christmas brunch and it went over very well! I used all shredded cheddar, colby, and jack cheeses because I didn't have any brie. I used 1/2 soy milk, 1/2 skim milk. I also omitted the onions because my family doesn't like them. This was easy to make and a great finished product! I kept it in for a little over 45 minutes and it was perfect. Thanks!
