Cheese-Topped Potatoes in Foil image

Whenever we go camping, cheesy potato packets are a must. They just may remind you of scalloped potatoes. In the winter, I bake them in the oven. -Denise Wheeler, Newaygo, Michigan

Yield 8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 8

2-1/2 pounds potatoes (about 3 large), peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices

5 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

Fold foil around potatoes, sealing tightly., Cook on campfire or in covered grill until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes per side.

These potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish. I love that I can make them ahead of time and just pop them in the oven when I'm ready to serve.

I thought these potatoes were just okay. They were a little too greasy for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less butter.

These potatoes were a disappointment. They were bland and undercooked. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit with my family. The potatoes are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the cheese is perfectly melted and gooey. I highly recommend this recipe!

I've tried this recipe twice now and both times the potatoes have turned out undercooked. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

These cheesy potatoes were a hit! They were simple to make and tasted delicious. I used cheddar cheese, but I bet other types of cheese would be good too. I'll definitely be making these again.
