½ cup bacon, crumbled cooked bacon
4 oz small broccoli floret, divided
1 cup cheese sauce
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup cream cheese
½ cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
9 oz frozen spinach, 1 package, thawed and drained well
1 lb medium red potato, sliced into 1/2 in (1 1/4 cm) thick rounds
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 lb medium red potato, sliced into 1/2 in (1 1/4 cm) thick rounds
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups chili, prepared
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 lb medium red potato, sliced into 1/2 in (1 1/4 cm) thick rounds
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 cup marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
8 slices pepperoni

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C). Tear off 8 12-inch (30 cm) square sheets of foil. Stack 2 sheets of foil and fold in the long sides, then the short sides, to make a tray. Repeat with the remaining foil and set the trays in an 18 x 13-inch (45 x 33 cm) baking sheet.
  • Make the cheddar broccoli potatoes: In a large bowl, season the potatoes with the salt and pepper and toss to coat. Add the bacon, 1 cup of broccoli (150 G), and the nacho cheese sauce. Mix until the potatoes are fully coated.
  • Pour the mixture into 1 section of the prepared pan. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese and remaining cup of broccoli on top.
  • Make the creamy spinach potatoes: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, mix together the cream cheese, heavy cream, ½ cup (150 G) mozzarella cheese, and the spinach. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until the cheese is completely melted, about 1 minute total.
  • In a large bowl, season the potatoes with the salt and pepper and toss to coat. Add the spinach mixture and mix until the potatoes are fully coated.
  • Pour the mixture into another section of the prepared pan. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup (50 G) mozzarella on top.
  • Make the chili potatoes: In a large bowl, season the potatoes with the chili powder, pepper, and salt and toss to coat. Add the chili and mix until the potatoes are fully coated.
  • Pour the mixture into another section of the prepared pan and sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top.
  • Make the pizza potatoes: In a large bowl, season the potatoes with the salt, pepper, and oregano. Add the marinara sauce and mix until the potatoes are fully coated.
  • Pour the mixture into the last section of the prepared pan and sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top. Arrange pepperoni on top.
  • Bake for 45 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
  • Serve immediately, or portion into reusable containers and store in the fridge for up to 4 days. To reheat, place portion in a microwave-safe container. Place in microwave and cook for 2-3 minutes. If contents are not heated through, continue cooking in 30-second intervals.
  • Enjoy!

This recipe was a disaster! The potatoes were not cooked through and the cheese sauce was watery. I would not recommend it.

Meh. I found this recipe to be bland and uninspired. The potatoes were dry and the cheese was rubbery.

This dish is a great way to sneak veggies into my kids meals! They loved the cheesy potato topping and didn't even realize they were eating broccoli and carrots.

So simple to make, yet so impressive! The potatoes were cooked to perfection and the cheese was melted and gooey. I served this with grilled chicken and it was a perfect meal.
