1
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels. Leave about 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the skillet.
2
Prepare the Potatoes
In the same skillet, add diced potatoes. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for about 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender and golden brown, stirring occasionally.
3
Add Cream Cheese
Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese to the skillet. Stir until melted and combined with the potatoes.
4
Incorporate Cheddar
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the potato mixture. Allow it to melt, then stir to combine.
5
Mix in Bacon and Green Onions
Crumble the cooked bacon and add it back into the skillet along with chopped green onions. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
6
Serve
Remove from heat, garnish with additional green onions if desired, and serve warm.
