So slowly I'm getting things set up for my Etsy store. I'm kind of scared of actually posting things though. I'm scared of all of a sudden getting a sale way before I ever expected one and then not being prepared and messing it up somehow. I'm trying to think of everything possible I'll need to sell and ship things but I'm still worried so I think I'm sort of putting it off... I have a handful of shirts photographed right now. Hopefully I'll start working on descriptions soon and maybe post a few items...

 Time for another food post! Yay! This time it is Crockpot Bacon Cheesy Potatoes. They are so yummy! And crockpots are the best thing!

 
















 You need:
 - bacon (how much ever you want. I used one package)
- 2 onions
- 4 medium potatoes
- cheese
- salt and pepper
- butter

 

 Instructions:
- Precook the bacon. My favourite way to cook it is to cut it up BEFORE frying it (if it needs to be diced). Then I drain the bacon (tilt the pan on the edge of the burner and put bacon all on the high end) and also put it on some papertowel to help get some of the fat off.

- Next you need to line the crockpot with foil, leaving extra on the top to cover the potatoes. This will prevent most of the sticking and will steam the potatoes.

- Next throw all the bacon, onions, and potatoes into the crockpot. I threw in random amounts until I had enough. I did have some extra potatoes that wouldn't fit. Season with salt and pepper. (I used some tongs to mix things together. I didn't take a picture of that, but the picture where I'm mixing the cheese in is the same tongs I used for this part). Then you need to dot with the butter.

- Fold over the remaining foil.

 

- Cover and cook on high for 3 or 4 hours.



 - Before the last few minutes, add the shredded cheese. Or when it is done just add the cheese and let it sit with the lid on for a few minutes. That's what I did. It melts the cheese just as well. 





And now it's done!! And yummy! 




There ya go. :) Until next time... If you make this, let me know what you think of it! :) I'm thinking this would taste GREAT with a beer... :D
