This is the scalloped potato recipe my mom used for dinner Friday night. They were soooooo good. Warm, cheesy and the cayenne pepper gives them just a tiny kick. Can't promise that they're healthy though. :)

Makes 6 servings
4 cups thinly sliced potatoes
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 dash cayenne pepper
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup grated cheese, to sprinkle on top

Pour half of cheese sauce over potatoes.

Oh my! My husband and I love anything cheesy potatoes so I will definitely have to pin this recipe! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI have never successfully made these (mine always seem lumpy rather than creamy), but perhaps this might be the recipe that solves all my problems!

ReplyDeleteLord that looks amazing, and surprisingly not too hard! I have some potatoes I need to use up so maybe I'll make this recipe, though considering i need to be in a bathing suit in 2 weeks, I probably should not :-)
