Where is the 6th star? DH and I were in tater heaven. The smoked gouda (availble at my local grocery) prepackaged , presliced, very inexpensive) gave a unique smokey flavor to mundane taters. This was a nice change to cheese potatoes and didn't pass GO, but went straight to 2011 favorite, iit surpassed cheese taters hands down. Made for ZWT7, shady Ladies. Thanks for sharing a real keeper. -
*Made for Australia/NZ Swap #49* did not assign stars since couldn't find smokey gouda. Eyeballed about 1/3 of recipe ( for 2), and used shredded Gruyere in place of the gouda. It was a nice combination of ingredients and prep., but, to our taste needed some salt and pepper. Served with sweet Italian sausage with peppers and onion -- made a nice Saturday night dinner. Thanks for posting, APARZCH. -
Nice potato dish. I only had regular Gouda, so added just a tiny bit of liquid smoke. Made for Everyday Holiday Tag. :) -
I inititally scaled back for 3 but when weighed up 1/2lb chat potatoes (which I quartered) I decided to double that and am so happy that I did for the 3 of us wolfed down the lot with great enejoyment. I did make this up ahead of time up to step 10 and transferred into a casserole dish so all I had to do was heat it up in a slow oven while my other dish was cooking and then put the other half of the bacon on when I served, also because I could not get smoked gouda I used half smoked cheddar and half regular gouda. Thank you AZPARZYCH, made for ZAAR Stars tag game. -

<p><span><strong>I am a stay at home mom to two wonderful boys; Joshua (8years), Kaiden (5 years), and baby GIRL, Madalynn (19 months)! I also have two fur babies (cats); Kobee, AJ; we had to put our youngest cat Sly down Jan 2014. :(. I am also married to my best friend, Jeff and have been since April 2005. I love cooking, hate cleaning and will do whatever I can to get out of it! I love grilling and baking. I do most of the grilling at my house, and bake for almost a week straight at Christmas time! I can make or will attempt just about anything, though I rarely make brownies, my husband's are the best! Homemade breads are not my friend, so I am always working on bread baking.</strong></span></p>
<p><span><strong>As for recipe ideas (besides zaar) Cooking Light Cookbooks are my favorites. I love to make new meals and try new things; it is hard though because my husband is picky when it comes to veggies (and hates seafood); If it were up to him we would have baked-bread crumb chicken and white rice at least one meal a day! Over the past couple years with zaar, I have found tons of new recipes my family normally wouldn’t eat but have been happily surprised with new favorites.</strong></span></p>
<p><span><strong>I love to join in all of the tag games; I haven't been as present as I would like, but as soon as my Jeff is back from working in Ohio I will be back in full tagging mode! </strong></span></p>
<p><span><strong>Cooking is my hobby and passion, I always like to host the family get togethers and volunteer for the potluck dishes. Most of all though are my kids; being home all day with them is fun and challenging, but I wouldn’t trade it for any salary!!</strong></span></p>
