Cheesy Jalapeno and Bacon Potato Au Gratin #SundaySupper

June 7, 2015 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 28 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today #SundaySupper teamed up with Wisconsin Cheese to share with you our favorite cheesy recipes.  I am so excited to share with you today’s recipe because it takes basic Potato Au Gratin and it has been kicked it up a notch. I bet you know where I am going with this.  I added jalapenos and bacon to my potatoes.  Oh-My-Gosh!!!!  It blows my mind on how good it tastes.   Nothing beats when you create a recipe that you are just so excited to share with the world.

Cheesy Jalapeno and Bacon Potato Au Gratin #SundaySupper

The potatoes are cheesy, chock full of bacon flavor with just a little kick of heat.  I have to admit, this is by far my favorite Au Gratin Potato recipe of all time.  The recipe is also easy to make too.  I used Yukon potatoes to give it a creaminess, whole milk, butter, Mild Cheddar Wisconsin Cheese, bacon, jalapenos from the garden and of course love!

Cheesy Jalapeno and Bacon Potato Au Gratin Ingredients #SundaySupper


I cut my potatoes to 1/4″ thickness.  You can use a mandolin, but I just used my knife.  I did one layer of potatoes, and topped it with finely chopped onions, jalapenos, bacon and added a little ground pepper.  After my first layer I made my cheese sauce, which is made with butter, flour, milk and of course Wisconsin Cheddar Cheese.  I poured half of the cheese mixture over my potatoes and topped with remaining potatoes and cheese sauce.

I baked it in the oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes.  My house smelled amazing.  I let it cool for a little bit before serving it.  You have no idea how I was tempted to dig into it as it came out of the oven, but I needed to wait for it to thicken up.

I have to tell you I was honored to be chosen to go to Wisconsin with Katie, Isabel, and Denise of #SundaySupper.  We went to the Farmers Market and I have to tell you I never seen so much cheese.  I tried Cheese Curd for the first time.  Amazing!  Plus, I was so drooling over all of the cheese with peppers in it.  I happened to sneak some cheese home in my suitcase.  🙂  Here we are, you can just call us Cheese Heads!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.

What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together. 
🌿
Tomorrow I am going to start to share Valentines Day. My dining room is filling up with hearts. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to start sharing. Hope you have a beautiful day!
