Heat the oven to 350°. Mix half of the cheese and all the ingredients together. Spread the venison mixture into an ungreased loaf pan, 9 by 5 by 3 inches or shape into a loaf in an ungreased baking pan. Bake, uncovered, for 1 to 1 1/4 hours or until done. Drain off the excess fat. Prepare the potatoes as directed on the package except — stir in the remaining cheese. Spread the potatoes on the sides and top of the meat loaf. Sprinkle with the crumbled bacon and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are lightly browned. Serve hot.
