LOADED OVEN BAKED POTATO CASSEROLE image

This is a recipe that mostly everyone makes some version of in one form or another. This is my version, using all the ingredients that my family & I have come to love. I make it often as individual servings, other times, I simply mix it all together,& put it in a casserole dish. No matter how you put it together it is always...
