For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding chopped green onions or chives to the potato mixture. If you prefer a creamier texture, substitute cream cheese for some of the sour cream. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack, to customize the flavor profile. To add a smoky depth, use bacon that has been smoked with hickory or applewood. These potatoes can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator until ready to bake. Simply add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
