Cheesy Grilled Potatoes

Well, it looks like fall in my house, how about yours??  Leaves scattered here and there, fall salt & pepper shakers just waiting to be shook. Macintosh Apple and Harvest candles ready to be light. HOWEVER, it is at least 80 something degrees outside PLUS humidity that will curl anyone’s hair. So. For now , those candles will stay un-lit and we will just cool down with the sight at fall wreaths and pumpkins AND hooded sweatshirts.   Fall will be here soon, for now I will embrace this pressure/humidity induced headache and enjoy the day, knowing that fall is nearly here!!!

Perhaps you planned Pot Pie for dinner and realized that this was NOT the day for that ;/  Might be a  good night to grill……Need a side dish? This potato recipe has been enjoyed by us a lot this summer. It is quick and easy to throw together, tho it does take some time to grill. Kick back, relax and enjoy the evening well grilling, it is BOUND to cool a bit!

Cheesy Grilled Potatoes   

6 med. red potatoes, cut up (I leave skin on)
5 green onions (or 1 med. onion, chopped)
3 TB. fresh grated Parmesan
1/2 tsp. seasoning salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 TB. butter, cut up
cooked, crumbled bacon (4-5 slices)
1 c. colby jack cheese, shredded

Mix together the potatoes, onions, Parmesan, seasoning salt and pepper. Place potato mixture on a piece of GREASED heavy-duty foil (or 2 layers of regular foil). Dot with butter.  Top with another piece of GREASED heavy-duty foil (or 2 layers of regular foil).

Grill over low heat for about 20 – 25 minutes per side. (We like ours crispy on bottom, so we probably cook ours about 50-55 minutes total.) Open packet up and top with bacon and cheese, close grill lid and let set about 5 minutes till all melted.

Serve and ENJOY!!

Serves 4-6.
