  2. Pour this mixture over the layered ingredients in the crockpot.
Cooking
  1. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and the cheese is melted.
  2. With about 15 minutes left, sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top, cover, and allow it to melt before serving.
  3. Finally, garnish with fresh parsley or chopped chives before serving.
