This Mississippi mud cheesy potatoes is so simple to make and will be a great addition to any main course you’ll be making. They are loaded with potatoes, lots of cheese, bacon, mayonnaise, and a secret ingredient that really makes this dish come together.
Do you like potatoes? But sometimes tired of eating them as they always taste the same? They don’t have to!
There are so many ways you can mix and spice things up while cooking potatoes and serving them as a side dish or even main course for your dinner.
For example, you can add some cheese, green onions and lots of bacon and everyone will be coming for extra portions! I think it must be due to the bacon. Bacon makes everything better, right?
This Mississippi mud cheesy potatoes recipe doesn’t require any special type of potatoes but to make things easy, choose bigger and younger ones or russet potatoes will also work great in here.
If you’re comfortable enough and have good quality potatoes, then feel free to leave the skins on and simply wash and dice your potatoes into cubes before baking.
