How to Make Cheesy Garlic Potatoes in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
As you know, I have always loved Momma’s Cheesy Crock Pot Potatoes. The other day I was brain storming for recipe ideas, and this recipe came to mind. Then I thought, “Hey! Garlic would be great with this recipe!” So now you have this amazing side dish that is a cheese lover’s dream! I love the extra touch of flavor the garlic adds to Momma’s classic recipe!
This recipe is a shorter recipe for the crock pot cooking time. That is because you are cooking your potatoes on the stove first. Yes, it is an extra step. However, this makes it so you can make this recipe in a much shorter time period than if you were cooking your potatoes in your crock pot. I am so not a morning person. So, having a recipe I can put on in the afternoon and still have ready by dinner time is big plus for me!
My entire family was raving about these yummy potatoes, from my youngest child to my husband (otherwise known as my oldest child ๐ ). I can’t wait for you and your loved ones to try this recipe and enjoy it as much as we do!
