Everything you love about a loaded baked potato in casserole form!Â
With all the ways you can enjoy potatoes, this is my familys all time favorite way!Â
Use any of your favorite cheeses, I am always switching it up for slightly different flavors.
You can also replace the sour cream (if you arent a fan) I promise you cannot taste it but if you would like to substitute, you can replace it with extra cream cheese, about 4-6 ounces.
