Janette loves potatoes and I love any reason to bust out the crockpot so I thought this recipe would be a “win” all the way around. I was not wrong.
It’s a great work week dinner recipe because it only has a few ingredients and you start it in the morning and it will be ready for dinner when you return in the evening.
I used golden potatoes, but you could use red or whatever else your heart desires. Anything covered in bacon and cheese won’t be bad!

I made a lazy version of this last night that was a hit with the whole family. Not as pretty as yours, but DELICIOUS!
Would love to make this recipe but could you tell me approximately it will serve. Thanks
Hi Shirley! If eating it as a side, I would say it serves 5-7 people. Hope you enjoy!
Question: if only using 1 Tbsp. of dry ranch dressing mix, how can it be enough to use in several layers? Did I miss something?
