#1766 - Foil Potatoes

(by Shirley McNevich)

1 glass baking dish
1 sheet of foil
4 or 5 medium red potatoes (washed and sliced--do not peel)
ground black pepper and salt to your taste
5 slices of bacon
1 large onion (chopped)
1/2 lb. shredded sharp cheese
1 stick butter

Cook bacon--drain and crumble it--set aside. Place a large sheet of foil in a rectangular baking dish. Spray the foil with Pam. Spread the sliced potatoes on the foil. Salt and pepper to your taste. Sprinkle the bacon on top of the potatoes. Sprinkle the chopped onions over the bacon. Cut the butter into small pieces and place them all over the top of the onions. Sprinkle the cheese over the whole top. Fold up the foil but do not press it against the cheese--you should end up with a sealed foil packet--use a second piece of foil on top if necessary. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 to 60 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
