This was my first time cooking potatoes in a slow cooker. They reminded me of tin foil dinner potatoes. Perfectly tender and packed with flavor. I can’t even describe how amazing these turned out! A delicious side for any meal! Easy clean up and tender delicious potatoes that are packed with flavor.

All of the flavors combined with cheese and bacon to create these delicious potatoes. While cooking in the slow cooker, they create the best aroma in your house all day. And when it is time for dinner, you just scoop them up and they really make the perfect side!
