This Loaded Creamy Cheese Bacon Twice Baked Potato Casserole is a feast, perfect for satisfying the heartiest appetites. Chopped baked potatoes form a robust base, layered with crispy bacon and savory ham, all enveloped in a silky sauce made from evaporated milk thickened with cornflour and enriched with chicken broth. The casserole is generously sprinkled with a blend of sharp cheddar and creamy mozzarella, creating a gooey, golden cheese crust when baked. Subtle flavors of garlic, onion, and English mustard permeate the dish, contrasting the rich, creamy elements. Sprinkled with fresh or dried thyme, this casserole is comforting and flavourful, making it a perfect centerpiece for gatherings or a luxurious family dinner.

  • Thanks Rik. I really appreciate the use of evaporated milk. Those of us on low income or fixed income may not be able to afford cream and evaporated milk is 4x less expensive in my area and on the public transport line. Plus some may be like me and only have transport once or twice a month so shelf stable really helps. Made a terrific fresh creamy mushroom soup with evaporated milk the other day. Without your inspiration I never would have thought to use it there. It was awesome!❤
  • @dla1509
    Ooooooo!! Make it with big chunks of mushrooms and Swiss cheese, and a touch of bacon 🥓 mmmmmm!!
  • @tridsonline
    👌🏻 Superb indeed! The skins are where half the potato flavour hides.
  • @davidhuggan6315
    Looks great! A good one to keep in mind as we head towards winter here in Sydney 🙂
  • @lancpudn

    We call this "hot dish" in my parts. Sky's the limit on ingredients for these. This version looks absolutely delicious. Another good one...thanks Rik.
  • Oh, does this look wonderful, Rik!! I can't wait to make this. Yum.
  • My Mom was amazing in the kitchen. Won a few local cooking competitions...had her picture in the newspaper. However, she kept all her recipes in her head...never wrote them out. My grandmother would type them on index cards. I always think she would have loved your show too❤
  • I love your style. "The potatoes should be the same size." CHOP. "NOW they are." 😁
  • @georgekostaras
    This looks like a meal that’d leave you full for a whole day
  • @pixie3760
    Oh yes! I have everything here except bacon but I'll do this tomorrow night with the cauliflower instead. I love meals like this. Cheers Rik.
  • @karlsmith1533
    Looks like a winner again Rik, brought up on evaporated milk in the 70’s. Still on the comfort food list, I think I’ll try this one…for old times sake, many thanks…
  • Scrumptious ! Once again Rik you shine! I really enjoy watching how you bring superb ingredients together beautifully. Top class.
  • @jennyt966
    Amazing. I've got to make this dish soon. Everything to love in this recipe. Thanks for sharing, Rik.
  • @johnbaldwin143
    You never disappoint Rik. This one is now on my radar. Just like tins of corned beef I have Evaporated Milk on the shelf just by following your channel. Sometimes I use 'Silken Tofu' instead of cream. It comes in a carton and is shelf stable too.
