#3780 - Spring Onion Potato Cassrole

(by Shirley McNevich)

3lbs. red potatoes (washed, peeled and cut into 1" chunks)
1 cup Carnation evaporated milk (NOT condensed)
1/2 cup Breakstone's sour cream
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
8oz. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
8 slices bacon (fried and crumbled)
thinly sliced green onions

Place the potato chunks in a pot and cover them with salted water--bring to a boil over medium heat, then cook 20 minutes or until tender. Drain the potatoes. In a large bowl add drained potatoes, evaporated milk, sour cream, salt and pepper--mash with a potato masher. Add HALF of the cheese and HALF of the crumbled bacon--stir until mixed. Spread the mixture into a greased 3 qt. casserole dish. Bake at 350 degrees 25-30 minutes or until hot. Remove from oven--sprinkle spring onions, remaining bacon and remaining cheese over the top. Return to oven and bake until cheese is melted.
