Re: NEED SIMPLE RECIPE FOR CHEESY SCALLOPED POTATOES

If you are not a good cook, Betty Crocker makes about a half dozen box mixes for scalloped potatoes, au gratin, etc.

 

I'm not a big enough fan of scalloped potatoes to ever make them from scratch personally.   I've used the boxed mix before, family ate it up.

@software  I have used those, too, with success.  I just happened to have a bag of potatoes and ham that I would like to use up.  Smiley Sad 

 

Thanks for your response!

Re: NEED SIMPLE RECIPE FOR CHEESY SCALLOPED POTATOES

@Tends2dogs  Our DIL made the following recipe, and I embarrassed myself by eating so much of it.  I couldn't resist.

 

Cheesy Potatoes


2 lb Hash Browns, Country Style

1/4 cup butter
1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 pint Sour Cream
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup onion, chopped finely
10 oz Sharp Cheddar Cheese

2 cup Corn Flakes
1/4 cup butter, melted


Soften hash browns.

 

Combine first six ingredients (Butter through Cheese)

 

Mix ingredients with hash browns and place in baking dish.

 

Crush Corn Flakes and combine w/ melted Butter. Place mixture on top of potatoes.

 

Bake at 350 for about 1 hour uncovered or until hot.

Strive for respect instead of attention. It lasts longer.

@lolakimono  Too funny, NO!  I don't like to cook. I am a "bit" sorry to say.  I wouldn't have an oven if I didn't have to LOL.

@IamMrsG  I have this recipe and have made it often for family get togethers. 

 

I may have to tweak it using peeled, sliced potatoes.

@dex  Do you melt your cheese in the white sauce?

Re: NEED SIMPLE RECIPE FOR CHEESY SCALLOPED POTATOES

you can and then add some more on the top if you want lots of cheese.The scalloped potato is prettying forgiving.If it is drying out too much in the oven you can add a little more milk or cream.

you can see a similar recipe if you look up old fashioned scalloped potatos.
