Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Russet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 cup Low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 slices Turkey bacon
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Lightly coat the sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Slice them into rounds about 1/4-inch thick.
Place the potato slices in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Toss until the slices are evenly coated.
Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overlapping to allow for even cooking.
Bake the potato slices in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip them over and continue baking for another 10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
While the potatoes are baking, cook the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to cool, then crumble into small pieces.
Remove the potato slices from the oven and carefully sprinkle shredded low-fat cheddar cheese over each slice. Add a few crumbles of turkey bacon on top of the cheese.
Return the baking sheet to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the potato slices from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped chives before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your WW-friendly Cheese Bacon Potato Slices as a snack, appetizer, or side dish!
