potato, bacon, and ricotta bake

This is an unreasonably rich meal. But its good and its not too bad. Just remember moderation!! Having a reasonable portion of this great savory meal and you will love it I assure. Providing your a meat and potato kind of person.

So you start by slicing up 4-5 large potatoes. They recommend you use a mandolin, but I don't have one so I just took my time slicing them wafer thin..

Then layer them in a pie plates and nuke them in the microwave for about 6-8 minutes. Take them out and let them cool a little so they will be easier to handle.

Then you need a baking dish like the one you see below or you can use a pie plate. Start by layering the potatoes one by one, then you will need to add a layer of crispy bacon. If you don't want to use real bacon use turkey bacon and I'm sure it would work just as well.

Then you will want to beat 4 eggs and a 1/2 cup of heavy cream or milk whatever you have on hand.

Then you will want to mix 1 cup of ricotta cheese, 3 tbs of sage, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese.

Then add the ricotta mixture on top of the bacon you layered.

Then repeat the process until you have used all your ingredients. Then pour your egg mixture on top of all of it. Then top with more Parmesan cheese and salt and pepper.

Bake in an oven at 375 degrees until it gets golden brown all over.

I served it up with some baked carrots and onions....it was a wonderfully warming meal for a cold fall night.

Enjoy !!!
