Ingredients

  • 9 medium potatoes, cooked, peeled, and cubed
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1 pound velveeta cheese, cubed
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 1/2 pound bacon, cooked until crisp and crumbled
  • 1/2 cup sliced green olives

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Begin by preheating your oven to 325°F (165°C).

This will ensure it’s at the correct temperature when you’re ready to bake the dish.

Step 2: Combine Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the following ingredients: potatoes, mayonnaise, cheese, and onion.

Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Add salt and pepper to taste, and mix once more to incorporate the seasoning.

Step 3: Prepare the Baking Dish

Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent the mixture from sticking.

Pour the potato mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 4: Add Toppings

Top the potato mixture with bacon pieces and olives, spreading them evenly over the surface.

These toppings will add flavorful and textural contrast to the dish.

Step 5: Bake the Dish

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour.

The dish should be golden brown and bubbly when done.

Remove the dish from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and then serve hot.
