Loaded Red Potato Casserole

"This potato casserole has the same flavor of the potato skins you can order as a restaurant appetizer," shares Charlane Gathy of Lexington, Kentucky. "It's an ideal dish for tailgating and potlucks."

Could this be a Copycat recipe for the "CHILI'S" loaded mashed potatoes !!

Is there a way to lighten up this recipe - less fat and sodium?

THE LOADED RED POTATOES ARE DELISH! i'VE MADE IT SEVERAL TIMES AND IT'S A HIT!

This is probably a silly question, but do you peel the potatoes?

Jocarnes I had the same question as I have recipes you don't peel the potatoes for. Did you get a response if you peel or not? Should be in recipe.....

Re: I would not peel the red potatoes. The peel is loaded with vitamins.

Do you really mean to add the sour cream in the baking stage & not after baked?

Do you peel the potatoes first? I couldn't tell from the picture.

How can this be addapted for a slow cooker?

I left the skins on, but only used the smallelst red potatoes, roughly the size of golf balls. Easy and delicious. I think that next time I will substitute pancetta for for the bacon. Easy to keep warm in a crock pot on the lowest setting. May need to stir in another piece of butter or a little milk/cream if you let them warm too long. Deee-lish!

 I hope these ideas help you--

Use skim milk

use a butter like "Healthy Start"

omit salt or use salt substitute

use low-fat cheese and sour cream

This has become one of my favorite recipes! It's a side dish that will go well with almost anything. I leave the peels on the potatoes, and use about 8 medium/large red potatoes. So good!

Mediocre. Not a lot of flavor. A baked potato with these toppings would be easier and taste better.

This is a delicious recipe! I add garlic cloves, peeled to the potatoes while boiling and I add minced chives and diced tomatoes on top for extra color and flavor. A little ranch mixed in with the sour cream is great too.
