Absolutely a keeper!! Have made twice now. Only difference I made was to use a 5lb bag of baby red potatoes which I baked then left the skins on...as much for color as for extra texture. Also used shredded cheddar instead of american. And omitted the olives. The boys loved it!! Hard to please 14, 9 and 5 yr boys. But they all came back for seconds!!

This got great reviews from the family at Easter dinner. I wanted something different than mashed potatoes and I definitely found it! I used cubes of mozzarella cheese (hubby doesn't like cheddar or american), ranch dressing instead of mayo, and 9 good-sized potatoes. This was more than enough to feed 12 people. I will definitely make this again, even for everyday meals. It would probably even be good served cold.

Wonderful recipe. I used 1/2 shredded cheddar and 1/2 shredded velvetta and some garlic powder. Also, I used 3/4 sour cream and 1/4 mayo as others have suggested. Goes great with BBQ.

Loved this recipe! My husband thought it was a bit "rich", but I felt it was an excellent dish for company! Four stars because I felt that adding the bacon and THEN baking caused the bacon to get overdone. Best to top with the bacon 15 minutes before done baking. Thanks for a nice recipe!

My mom has made this for me since I was a kid. I don't put olives in the recipe and I use Miracle Whip instead of mayonaise. My friend makes this recipe also and she leaves the skin on the cubed potatos. It is good that way as well.

I made this for a church pot luck and by the time I got up to the spot on the table where these were, they were gone! I'm giving this a 4 based on that, and seeing as I didn't get to try it I have no idea how these tasted! It is a bit time consuming to make, but aparently the effort was worth it!

I used bacon bits instead of real bacon because I had it on hand. I tossed bits in with the mix before baking. I also used sliced american cheese-no difference. I crushed potato chips and scattered on top of salad before baking. We enjoyed this recipe.

Wow! Made 2 trays of this for my son's 16th b-day party, and it was nowhere near enough. Awesome recipe!!! Used shredded cheddar, added about 1/4 cup of sour cream and replaced the olives with chopped green onions. Thanks for the recipe and all the tips. This one's a keeper.

I made the recipe for 4 and left half the skins on the potatoes and removed the rest, I also used shredded cheddar instead of processed cheese. The mayo made it a little greasy but it crisped the potatoes on the outside great. It was very tasty but I may try half sour cream and half mayo like someone suggested. Simple painless recipe that I'm already planning meals around. Went great with ham!

Absolutely delicious. I have made this exactly as the recipe stated and have also made a "mashed" version omitting the olives. I then serve it with eggs for breakfast. Great for camping. I made this for a potluck and literally had to give the recipe to 8 people! A great hit. Hint: Use Best Foods Mayo for the best taste or use grated cheddar cheese. Yummy.

I make this all the time for family gatherings and there is none left to take home. I get the cheese from the deli and have them slice it thick. I also omit the olives and double the bacon. I mix half of the bacon in the salad and cover the top with the other half.

This recipe needs some work. First, the velveeta didn't melt very well. Next time I'll use cheddar. Second, the green olives don't mix (and I love green olives). Also, there was not enough dressing. Next time I'll use some sour cream as well. I'd like to try this again but I'll remake the recipe with my changes.

I made this recipe w/o the olives and it was great. The only thing I forgot to do was spray the pan with Pam and it stuck to the bottom (oops!). This recipe is delicious.

The chunks of Velveeta in this recipe make for some nasty bites, so if I make this again I'll use shredded cheddar instead. I think it would be pretty tasty that way. I also omitted the olives.

This is a fantastic recipe! I used 1/2 sour cream and 1/2 mayo, shredded cheddar, and omitted the olives. I can hardly wait to serve it again! I think I might try it with the olives next time, just to see how it is. This recipe is a definite keeper! Thanks for sharing!
