Mississippi Mud Potatoes
There’s a reason this recipe has “mud” in the name — just like the famous Mississippi Mud Pie, it’s rich, messy in the best way, and completely irresistible. Imagine tender diced potatoes baked in a creamy mixture of sour cream, cheese, and crispy bacon, then finished with even more cheese on top.
It’s the kind of dish that shows up at every family gathering and disappears before anything else — comfort food perfection baked into a bubbling, cheesy casserole.
Ingredients
You’ll only need a few simple, hearty ingredients — all pantry staples:
-
6 medium russet potatoes (or about 2 lbs), peeled and diced
-
1 cup sour cream
-
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided (sharp cheddar works best)
-
1 cup mayonnaise (trust me — this makes it extra creamy, not weird!)
-
1 small onion, finely chopped
-
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
2 green onions, chopped (optional for garnish)
-
1 tsp garlic powder (optional for extra flavor)
Optional Add-Ins
If you like to tweak your recipes, here are a few fun ideas:
-
Chopped jalapeños or hot sauce for a spicy kick
-
Colby Jack or pepper jack cheese instead of cheddar
-
A handful of cooked sausage or ham for a heartier main dish
-
Crushed potato chips or breadcrumbs on top for a crispy finish
