Oven Roasted Tater Crunch

While I was excited about trying this vegetarian version of a bacon potato recipe I didn't really know what we were in for. My son will not eat anything on his plate once he catches a sight of this. Everything else goes by the wayside as he downs this and asks for more and more and more. My husband ignored the other items I had cooked and ate as many potatoes as he could without getting eyes from me to slow down. They both ate them for lunch the next day and the day after. I think we can call this a success since both my son and husband are big bacon fans and normally turn their nose up at veggie bacon.
