If loaded baked potatoes and cheesy potato skins top your favorite sides, you’ll want to make room for this red potato casserole. This crowd-pleasing potato casserole recipe<\/a> can be prepped in advance and easily doubles for potlucks and holiday dinners.<\/p>\n We boil tender red potatoes and mash them with milk and butter to create the casserole’s base. Then, it’s time to pile on all the classic potato fixin’s\u2014crisp bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, tangy sour cream and a sprinkle of fresh chives\u2014and bake the casserole until the cheese is melty and everything is warmed through.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. Place the potatoes in a 6-quart stockpot and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife. Drain through a colander and return the potatoes to the pot.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> To ensure even cooking, start the potatoes in cool or room-temperature water. Don’t forget to salt the cooking water\u2014it’ll season the potatoes from the inside out.<\/p>\n Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes gently. Gradually add the milk, butter, salt and pepper. Transfer the mashed potatoes to a greased 3-quart baking dish.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Cold ingredients can make red potatoes gummy, so we recommend gently heating the milk and melting the butter before adding them to the potatoes.<\/p>\n Sprinkle the mashed potatoes with 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese and the crumbled bacon. Dollop the casserole with sour cream, then sprinkle with the remaining 1\/2 cup cheese.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Some readers prefer to spread the sour cream across the potatoes, as if frosting a cake. The choice is yours!<\/p>\n Bake the casserole, uncovered, until it’s heated through and the cheese melts, 20 to 25 minutes.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Sprinkle minced fresh chives, sliced green onions or chopped parsley on top of the casserole just before serving for a pop of pretty green.<\/p>\n Leftover red potato casserole can be stored in the refrigerator for up to four days. If your baking dish has a lid, you can leave the potatoes in the casserole dish. Otherwise, transfer them to an airtight container to prevent them from drying out or absorbing off-odors.<\/p>\n Sure! You can freeze this red potato casserole for up to three months. Assemble and bake the casserole as directed, then let it cool to room temperature. Wrap the baking dish with storage wrap and aluminum foil and pop it in the freezer. Before reheating, thaw the casserole in the fridge overnight.<\/p>\n Yes, you can make this red potato casserole up to two days ahead of time and bake it just before serving. Cook and mash the red potatoes, then layer them in the baking dish with the toppings. Cover the dish with a lid or storage wrap and store it in the fridge. When you’re ready to bake the casserole, take the dish out of the refrigerator while the oven warms up and then bake as directed.<\/p>\n We recommend reheating a full or partial casserole in the oven and using the microwave for individual portions. Bake the red potato casserole at 350\u00b0 for 20 to 30 minutes or until warmed through. Nuke a scoop of potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds, then stir and cook in 30-second increments until fully hot.<\/p>\n Yes! Mashed potatoes<\/a> store well and can be made up to two days in advance. Simply boil the potatoes and mash them with butter and milk. Allow the potatoes to cool slightly, transfer them to an airtight container and keep them in the fridge. When you’re ready to assemble the casserole, add a splash of milk to loosen the potatoes and make them easier to spread in the baking dish.<\/p>\n Yes, you can leave the skin on the potatoes for this recipe. This recipe calls for small red potatoes, which would be really hard to peel! Luckily, the skin on red potatoes is thin and tender, so there’s no need to peel them before cooking.<\/p>\n The skins add a pop of color to the mashed potatoes and are like a nutritional bonus\u2014they contain vitamin C, potassium and fiber! If you prefer smooth mashed potatoes without skins, use another type of potato (see next question).<\/p>\n While it won’t be a red potato casserole without red potatoes, you can make this dish with fluffy russets or buttery Yukon Gold potatoes. Both types of potatoes<\/a> are a good choice for making mashed potatoes, especially if you prefer to peel them first.<\/p>\n Red potato casserole goes well with any dish you’d serve alongside mashed potatoes, like traditional meat loaf<\/a>, crispy fried chicken<\/a> or a juicy grilled steak<\/a>. It’s also a great make-ahead side dish<\/a> for parties and holiday dinners.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This red potato casserole is potluck perfection, with mashed red potatoes smothered with all your favorite baked potato toppings.

The potatoes were of various shapes and sizes and I ended up using about 12 odd shaped potatoes, enough to cover the bottom of my 6 quart kettle in a single layer, similar to the video. It did take about 30 minutes to cook them through, and I did end up picking through the resulting mashed potatoes to clean out some of the not so attractive skins. That said, the flavor was decent, although it could have stood some more salt and some garlic. Depends on the bacon and how much you use. Also, you could save yourself some time and frustration by combing the sour cream, bacon, and one cup of cheese together, instead of the recommended layers, which stick together anyway. The end result was good and worth another try with red potatoes, with some seasoning modifications to fit our particular tastes.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":4,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2022-06-11","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"DudesGrandma"},"reviewBody":"This is the first time I ever commented on a recipe, all I can say its the bomb.
