Knock-Knock. Gracie, it's me!

I've been invited!
Yes, I have been invited to a 'virtual housewarming party' for my newest friend, Gracie. She has been blessed with a new home (I can only dream in this crazy housing market), and I'm all too happy to bring a dish.

My choice is an appetizer. I saw this recipe in EveryDay with RR and couldn't pass on it. I love Po-Ta-Toes and all things bite-sized! Appetizers are a great to eat, and easy to chat and mingle with. I love being able to walk around, hold a drink and talk to everyone. Since I'm the 'new kid on the block' in my sorority, I knew I had to bring something to mix-n-mingle.



Recipe:
4 red potatoes, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt
1/2 lb. bacon
1/3 cup sour cream
1/3 cup cream cheese
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives

Preheat the oven to 375.
Toss potato rounds w/olive oil and salt; arrange in single layer on a cookie sheet.
Bake 25 minutes; flip and bake another 10 minutes.
Cook bacon until crisp; crumble and set aside.
Stir cream cheese and sour cream together in medium bowl.
Arrange potato slices on a platter; dollup w/sour cream mixture, bacon and chives.
Serve warm!

These are a great idea! Potato skins always seem so involved to me, but these seem like a simple, delicious solution. Yum!
