This tasty Twice Baked Potato Casserole has all the wonderful flavors of twice baked potatoes with less work. Just spoon the potato mixture into one big casserole dish, top with the remaining bacon cheese and green onions, and bake. No tedious scooping out potatoes, mixing, and stuffing it back in the skins. This dish is always a hit with family and friends. Just one creamy cheesy bite and you will agree. This potato casserole is so delicious and easy that you will want to serve it with everything. I love to serve it with Grilled Pork Tenderloin and Crock Pot Meatloaf.
