Ingredients
  

  • 1 round loaf of crusty bread

  • Peel and boil the potatoes. As soon as they are cooked, wrap each potato in a half a slice of bacon.
  • Cover the cheese wheel and bread bowl with its lid and wrap in aluminum foil. Bake the bread and the bacon-wrapped potatoes on a separate baking sheet at 355°F for 30 minutes.
