  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 stick butter
  • 1/2lb smoked bacon*, diced and cooked(reserve grease)
  • 3 large russet potatoes, diced(I don't bother peeling)

  • 1-1 1/2 cup half and half
  • kosher or sea salt and fresh ground black pepper
  • For cornbread Croutons
  • 9X13 pan recipe of your favorite cornbread, but if yours is a very crumbly recipe(like we usually use) pick one with slightly more flour and liquid or add a bit more to yours. If it's TOO crumbly, it won't cut into bite sized squares! :)

  • 2t garlic powder
  • 1/4-1t ground chili powder(like chipotle, or pasilla, but can sub cayenne, if desired)
