Notes
- Evenly Sliced Potatoes. Make sure to slice the potatoes the same thickness so they all cook in the same amount of time. Using a mandolin is a great way to achieve even slices in less time!
- Cook Until Tender. Make sure to check your potatoes for doneness. The time may vary slightly depending on your crock pot, variety of potatoes use, and the thickness of the slices. Pierce the potatoes with a skewer or fork in several places. It should easily slice into the layers without any resistance when the potatoes are cooked.
- Easy Cleanup: I always line my slow cooker and spray the liner with non-stick cooking spray when making this dish. It makes cleanup much easier.
