So I've seen these potato stacks for awhile online and have always wanted to give them try. I got the gist of how to make them, then made them my own. I used gruyere cheese, (though you can use any cheese you like), and blasted them under the broiler for extra crispness. They're a fun, easy and tasty side dish, that even the kiddos can help make!

CHEESY POTATO STACKS

INGREDIENTS:

Non-stick spray
4 potatoes
4 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/4 cups gruyere cheese, shredded
salt
pepper
garlic powder
paprika
parsley flakes

DIRECTIONS:

1. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Coat 12 muffin tins with non-stick spray.

2. Peel potatoes, (or leave skin on, it's up to your liking), rinse and pat dry. Mandolin (or knife) slice them as thin as you can. Place slices in large bowl.

3. Pour butter and olive oil over slices and toss till coated. Sprinkle on salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika and parsley flakes to taste, and add in 3/4 cup of cheese. Toss again until mixed.

4. Take slices and evenly stack them into all the muffin tins. Place in oven and bake 45-55 minutes, until browned and cooked thru. Remove from oven and top each stack with remaining cheese. Place under broiler for 1-2 minutes, until cheese is melted and crisp. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley flakes.
