Three Cheese Potatoes

Blogging Marathon# : Week 1/ Day 3 Theme: Taste of Home Top 100 recipes of 2015 Dish: Three Cheese Potatoes
For the final day of this week's blogging marathon, I made this very addictive 'Three Cheese Potatoes'. My son is a self acclaimed super lover of both potatoes and cheese, so this dish was a hit with both my kids.
The original recipe for these three cheese potatoes on Taste of Home were made on the grill. But since it's very cold to grill, I made this recipe in the oven. Pre-cooking the potatoes before baking makes the dish cook faster. If not just bake the dish longer until the potatoes are tender.
With just a few ingredients, this dish is sure to please both kids and adults equally. I know for a fact that my son will be requesting it quite often now.
Recipe adapted from Taste of Home:
Three Cheese Potatoes
Ingredients:
  • 3 Large Potatoes, cut into 1" cubes
  • 1 Medium Onion, chopped
  • 3tbsp Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 Green Onions, thinly sliced
  • 2tbsp Olive Oil

  • ¼cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
  • To taste Salt & Pepper
  • 2 Garlic cloves, crushed
Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Combine chopped potatoes, onions and garlic in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 2~3 minutes or until the veggies are fork tender.
  3. Drain the veggies and place them in a 8" or 9" baking dish. Drizzle with oil, salt and pepper. Toss to coat and put the baking dish in the oven.
  4. Bake for 25~30 minutes or until the potatoes are crispy.
  5. In the meantime, combine the three cheeses. Once the potatoes turn crispy, sprinkle the cheese mix on top and bake for another 4~5 minutes or until the cheese melts and gets ooey & gooey. Serve immediately and Enjoy!!
