I am DYING for some Le Creuset cookware. I did find some at TJ Maxx about 40-50% off the original prices but still too expensive for me at this point!

This was definitely delicious, and even reheats well!

This looks outrageously good. And so simple — just the comfort food goodies that make a bad day not-so-bad after a heaping forkful of potato n’ bacon! Thank you for sharing and taking such om-nommy photos!

That looks amazing, and then I remind myself that I just got back from a weekend of eating crazy amounts of cheese so I really shouldn’t be making anything with potato and bacon anytime soon. Looks fantastic though. I just stumbled upon your blog through food buzz and I love your writing style.

This looks really good, it’s making me hungry for some comfort food! Nothing hits the spot like potatoes and cheese!

Similarly, but not in torte form, Nigella Lawson has a recipe called “Back from the Bar Potatoes” that is a mixture of potatoes, cheese, egg, bacon, and peas that is also delicious! Also, for any vegetarians out there like me, I use Morning Star veggie bacon in a lot of recipes and if you cook it very well is a great substitute for real bacon! Even my non-veggie boyfriend loves when I cook with it! And much healthier (not that health is an issue when consuming a meal like this haha)

You adapted Melissa’s recipe! I loved her on the Next Food Network star! The dish looks delicious. You can never go wrong with bacon and potatoes.

Oh my, I’d like to cancel the corn on the cob I’m having for dinner and eat this instead!

I like your Le Creuset pie dish

I saw her make this and thought it looked awesome, but your torte looks even better!! I love that you used Swiss instead. Gruyere is so expensive. Bacon + potatoes + cheese = win, win, win situation!

That looks great! I saw the show, and I had leaned toward wanting the guy to win, but she appears to be doing a good job.

Hi Liesl, I hadn’t seen your post, but your torte looks great! I did the Swiss switch because I didn’t want to spring for Gruyere Your crust looks great – I really need to practice my crimping!

That’s funny I just blogged about this last week…and I switched out the cheese to swiss as well! Did you see this on my blog!
