Ingredients

8 tablespoon (1 stick) butter
1   small bell pepper, sliced thin
1   small onion, sliced thin
Paula Deen’s House Seasoning (to taste)
1/2 cup sour cream
2 cup mashed potatoes
1 1/2 cup grated Cheddar cheese
4   medium potatoes, cooked
6   slices of bacon, cooked crisp

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spread mashed potatoes evenly on bottom of casserole dish.  Layer sour cream evenly over top.  (Each time you add a layer, sprinkle on a little House seasoning.)  Saute onion and bell pepper in butter; evenly layer over top of sour cream.  Next, layer with 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese.  Slice potatoes and layer over cheese until top is completely covered with potatoes.  Finally top with remaining 1 cup cheese.  Bake for 25-30 minutes.  Remove from oven and crumble bacon over top.

Leftover mashed potatoes work wonderfully in this recipe.
