The Deets:
I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to jump on the viral potato sandwich trend, but wow—this one is so good. This is my crispy, cheesy potato bake topped with scallion cream cheese, lox, and scallions. It starts with thinly sliced potatoes, layered and held together by plenty of melty gruyere and mozzarella cheese. Once baked, the potatoes come together in that works perfectly as a sandwich base or, in this case, as a delicious breakfast bake.
To take it up a notch, I topped mine with a generous layer of scallion cream cheese, lox, fresh scallions, a ton of dill, and a sprinkle of everything but the bagel seasoning. The combination of flavors and textures is unreal. You can fold it into a sandwich for a heartier bite or leave it flat like this—it’s perfect as an impressive appetizer or a fun twist on breakfast.
Trust me, this recipe is as good as it sounds, and I hope you’ll give it a try soon. Whether you’re making it for yourself or sharing with friends, it’s sure to be a hit. Enjoy every bite!
