Create an easy potato dish that is worth making again and again. Loaded with cheese, bacon, and vegetables, this potato casserole can challenge mashed potatoes.
By Heather Kinnaird
My daughter LOVES potatoes. Mashed, baked, stuffed, of course french fries can’t blame her there, fries are SO good. One of her favorite meals is broccoli and cheddar stuffed baked potatoes. She would eat these all the time. 
When I sat down to plan our our holiday menu, I wanted do something a bit more than mashed potatoes.
This casserole is all of her favorite baked potato toppings in one easy to prepare holiday dish.
Watch the video below for another delicious way to prepare your holiday potatoes. Tossed in caramel? It’s a sweet, salty, and spicy delight.

This looks like a great dish and I’m definitely going to cook it for my family this Christmas, but can you please confirm for me how long you bake the potatoes for, before you then put them into a baking dish with the broccoli, bacon etc.
I’m referring to the list of ingredients where it says:
•2lbs potatoes ( I used baby reds, but gold would be delicious as well) baked and quartered – seasoned with salt and pepper
Hope you have a Happy Christmas!!
Hi Bill,
Great question! I looked further into the recipe, and though it doesn’t indicate the first of the twice baked time/temp, I would still bake it at 350 deg for 25 mins, since it’s quartered only for the second bake. Tell us how it turns out!
