• Fry the chopped onion in the olive oil. If you like your green onions cooked, you can cook them up with your regular onion.
• Cook bacon until crisp, then chop into bacon bits.
• Use a large cake pan (lasagna pan).
• Put a layer of cooked potatoes on the bottom of the pan, then sprinkle some onions, green onions, and bacon bits on top of the potatoes.
• add a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and just a hint of garlic.
• now sprinkle some cheese on top.
• that completes one layer. add another layer of potato slices, then more onions, green onions, etc --
• keep going until you reach the top of the pan or until you run out of ingredients.
• The very top layer should be only potatoes.
• Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes, or until all of the cheese is meted throughout.
• Take the 1/2 cup of cheese you set aside earlier, and sprinkle on top.
