This simple yet satisfying bacon and potato bake is a family favorite in my home. It brings me right back to my days growing up on the farm, when we’d gather ’round the kitchen table for hearty, home-cooked meals made with fresh garden produce.
Thinly sliced potatoes roasted up with savory bacon is classic comfort food at its finest. I love assembling this dish right on a sheet pan – it makes for easy clean-up! The potatoes turn out crispy and golden brown, while the bacon gets perfectly crispy.
A sprinkling of fresh chives or parsley adds brightness, but the beauty of this recipe is that it lets the natural flavors of the potatoes and bacon shine. Serve it alongside a fresh salad or steamed veggies for a well-rounded meal. But be sure to make extra – these irresistible potatoes have a tendency to disappear quickly!
This down-home bake is simple to throw together any night of the week. One bite will transport you right back to grandma’s farmhouse. I hope this wholesome recipe brings your family together for many cheerful meals.
