preheat oven to 400

bake for 40 minutes or until soft all the way through.

meanwhile...

(if u want to add any other veggies do this now.. great veggies to add would be chopped broccoli, green beans, green pepper, fresh baby spinach)

by now the steak should be cooked through. add the half and half and give a good stir..

keep an eye on it and stir occasionally, if it starts to dry out add a dash more bacon grease or add a bit of beef broth(I didn't have a problem with this)

after 20 minutes of simmering the flavors should be well incorporated and ur potatoes should now be done.

add a dollop of sour cream.

and sprinkle with 1/4 of the bacon bits..

repeat with the rest of the potatoes and steak..

serve hot!

TIP: u can use any type of steak u would like. I used eye of round because its cheap. russet potatoes work best but I prefer red potatoes because I like to eat the skin on red potatoes but not russet potatoes. I made mine this time without the dollop of sour cream and without the bacon bits because I ran out and cash was low. definitly better with them!
