It’s been hot, for like 4 whole days we saw 80 plus. Woohoo.
But that means I don’t really want to cook. So what to make for family movie night, that’s like going to the movies, without running the oven. Hrm…
Lazy Man’s Potato Skins were born.
I shop a lot at Trader Joe’s, but if you don’t have one locally, I am sure you can find something like this in your own local store. If all else fails, use tater tots, but you have to actually cook those so it kind of defeats the purpose.
Ok so pop a hash brown on the microwave safe plate, pop it in the micro for 45 seconds. Flip it over. Add cheese (Gruyeres on this one) and bacon. Micro 30-45 more, until the cheese is melted. Top with sour cream.
If you want to get fancy….try with pesto chicken, bacon, sun dried tomatoes, and parm.
This would also be an excellent alternative to loaded tater tots, which are hard to find gluten free. I’m totally gonna try and find hash browns at Costco later today!
