1. Prepare the Potatoes

Begin by boiling the cubed potatoes in salted water for 10-12 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. This step is crucial for creating a smooth and creamy mashed potato base.

2. Cook the Bacon and Sausage

While the potatoes are cooking, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped bacon and cook for about 5 minutes until crispy. Remove the bacon and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the crumbled sausage and chopped onion. Cook until the sausage is browned and the onion is softened, about 7-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.

3. Mash the Potatoes

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and return them to the pot. Add the butter, sour cream, and milk. Use a potato masher or fork to mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. This creamy mixture will be the heart of your potato loaf.

4. Combine the Filling

Gently fold the cooked bacon, sausage mixture, and shredded cheddar cheese into the mashed potatoes. Stir until well combined, ensuring that the meat and cheese are evenly distributed throughout the potato mixture.

5. Assemble the Loaf

Transfer the mashed potato mixture into a greased loaf pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top. If you like a crispy finish, sprinkle breadcrumbs on top.

6. Bake

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the potato loaf for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. This will create a delicious crust that contrasts beautifully with the creamy interior.

7. Serve

Let the loaf cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. This dish pairs beautifully with a simple salad or roasted vegetables.

Tips for Making the Best Potato Loaf

Choose the Right Potatoes: Russet potatoes are ideal for mashing due to their high starch content, which yields a fluffy texture.

Don’t Overwork the Potatoes: When mashing, be careful not to overmix. Overworking can lead to a gummy texture.

Add More Veggies: Feel free to sneak in some chopped spinach, bell peppers, or mushrooms for added nutrition and flavor
