How to Make New Orleans Potatoes
- Wash 5 medium red potatoes thoroughly with a vegetable brush.
- Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes, leaving the skins on.
- Gently boil the potatoes in salted water until tender (about 10-15 minutes).
- Drain the potatoes well, returning them to the hot pan to evaporate any excess moisture. Turn the heat to low if needed.
- Partially mash the potatoes using a potato masher or fork. Leave some chunks for texture.
- Stir in 1/2 cup sour cream, 4 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup bacon bits, and 2 tablespoons chopped green onions.
- Lightly spray a small (approximately 1.5-quart) casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Pour the potato mixture into the prepared casserole dish.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
