1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
½ cup butter, melted
2 green onions, sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, mix diced potatoes, sour cream, cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, butter, and green onions.
Season with salt and pepper and toss well to combine.
Spread mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
Remove foil and bake an additional 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender and top is golden brown.
