Notes

To make this for fewer or more people, simply adjust the amount of the ingredients.
Estimate the number of potatoes needed by figuring one good sized potato per person.
Make sure to spray pan with non stick spray so that casserole won't stick.
Reheat at 350 for 20 minutes.
It is fine to make this casserole the day before, just bake before serving.
Make sure to cut the potatoes into bite sized pieces for easy eating.

Substitutions: Feel free to change out the "toppings" to anything you like on a baked potato BUT be sure to leave in the wet ingredients and the cheese. There is a list of ideas in the post.

PRO TIP: To make this recipe MUCH easier, use frozen broccoli and precooked bacon! You'll never taste the difference and then you don't have to fry the bacon or pre blanch the broccoli!
