1 - 16oz. package sliced bacon
4 baking potatoes (washed, peeled and sliced into 1/8" chips)
1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Wash, peel and slice the potatoes into 1/8" chips. Place sliced potatoes into a bowl--
add melted butter and pepper. Stir with a spoon until well coated. Place potatoes in a
single layer on a greased jelly roll pan (pan needs to have a lip). Bake at 425 degrees
for 20 minutes or until tender. While potatoes are baking, cook bacon according topackage directions. Crumble the cooked bacon into a bowl. After potatoes have
baked for 20 minutes, remove from oven and use tongs to turn each potato onto the
other side. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and cheddar cheese over the top of each
potato. Return to oven and bake at 425 degrees for 5 minutes longer or until the
cheese is melted.
