These potatoes are an absolute HIT at my house! My teenage boys can't get enough of them! The cheese is expensive however, so we only make this at Thanksgiving and Christmas, but that makes them even more special. (Sam's Club sells it for about 1/2 what our grocery store does. I always put in more cheese than is called for, but it's not necessary - we are just cheese lovers here. I'd never heard of "manchego cheese" before, but it's absolutely delicious. This recipe is one of my family's favorites, that is certain.

I made this recipe for the first time for Thanksgiving 2009, for my family. It was fantastic!! I couldn't find my printed recipe this year (2010 and they want these potatoes again. I'm back printing it off one more time. This time I will make sure I know where I save it. Thanks Rachael!

These potatoes were so easy to make and delicious to eat even without gravy... perfect starchy cheesy side dish!
I used a mixture of cheddar and pepper jack... the BOMB!
The best part was when I made thin patties the next day with the potatoes and fried them up to make potatoe pancakes.... my family loved them so much not one patty was left over.
So make sure to double the recipe to ensure you have enough for potatoe pancakes the next day =0
