Oh! There's a name for those potatoes! ;D
I used to do these on the grill. It is a bit time consuming, but
the end result is delicious.
You can use whatever "stuffing" you want, but make sure to chop
the stuffing bits finely so that it gets stuffed in between the
slices instead of just piled on top.
I started by adding just a dab of butter between the slices,
some garlic powder, salt & pepper. Maybe some parmasean. Then
wrapped them individually in tin foil and let them bake on the
grill until they were about 1/2 way done, which made it easier
to open the slices a bit and add the stuffing between each
slice. (I bet it would be easier in the oven, no need to open
and rewrap the tin foil).
I used things like mushrooms and pre-cooked bacon or finely
chopped browned onions. Things like cheese or green onions (if I
didn't use the browned onion) I would add when the potatoes were
finished cooking. The potatoes were hot enough so that the
cheese melted enough prior to serving.
The beauty of these potatoes is that you can use any stuffing
that you like, be creative! AND it's like a baked potato with
everything, but instead of all the stuffing on top, it's melded
within each slice. A tasty bite all the way through.

We're going away this weekend and I'm trying cheesy potatoes
from canned, sliced potatoes. It's three cans of potatoes, some
seasoning, one cup heavy cream (I'm going with half a cup of
yogurt and half a cup 2% milk) and two cups of cheese. Bake for
50 min. (350 I think)
If it comes out nice, that'll be my go to casserole for pot
lucks.

Sounds good! I've never used canned potatoes. Never even knew
they were a thing!

Oh, you just brought back a memory for me!
My dad was a school Principal and Superintendent for many years.
He unfortunately was a bit hated by the school cafeteria staff.
Even thought this was the 70's, canned food products were very
much the norm. My Dad had a habit of going into the cafeteria
and providing "guidance" on their meal prep. (He instructed all
newly hired staff on the "proper way" to make cornbread) Canned
potatoes that were just warmed up was a great irritant to him so
he was always making them add bullion cubes, a bit of mustard
and fresh dill that he'd bring from home to make them more like
german potato salad.
