Creamy Potato Bake

My husbands favourite accompaniment to a BBQ is good creamy potato bake and I must admit I do love it too!

Slice potato thin to ensure it cooks well.  Layer half the potato into a baking dish, sprinkle over onion and bacon pieces.

Layer with remaining potato slices.  Mix cream, milk and stock powder in bowl, pour over potato bake, then sprinkle with grated cheese.

I may have left our potato bake in the oven a tad too long, but it still tasted delicious!
