I made this for Christmas Eve dinner and it was delicious. My husband said, "These are the best mashed potatos I've EVER had!" I was worried about how the cheese would taste but no worries now! The cheese was not too much and the bacon was perfect. I would make these again and again. Thanks PAULA!!!

OMGosh!!!! This recipe is a piece of Heaven!!!! I saw this recipe, last Saturday, and made it that night. When the show was repeated on Monday or Tuesday, I barely had some leftover to eat while watching the show, it was fun tasting LMP while seeing it being prepared on TV!! It reminded me of the Loaded Baked Potato Soup I used to get @ Bennigan's. I don't have to miss the soup anymore, when I can make this dish!! WOW!! says it all!! Paula's recipes make me a better cook every time I try them. Thanks, Food Network & Paula Deen!!lol (That's what it tasted like!!
