Creamy Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes


























Okay, so my first attempt at this dish (several months ago), ended up in the garbage, lol!! In my defense I would like to say that scalloped potatoes are not regularly consume here in the islands. Nevertheless, I decided to give it another go and the end result was simply amazing. My hubby and I couldn’t get enough of these.

Ingredients
  • 6 medium red potatoes cut into ¼ inch slices
  • 1½ cups grated cheddar cheese
  • 1 slice Kraft American cheese
  • ¾ cup cream of chicken soup
  • ¾ cup evaporated milk
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp garlic powder

Directions
  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Cook potatoes in a large pot of boiling, lightly salted water until tender.
  3. Drain potatoes and line in a lightly greased 2 quart baking dish.
  4. In a saucepan combine the remaining ingredients and stir over medium heat until the cheese has melted. (Be sure to leave about ½ cup of grated cheese to sprinkle on potatoes before baking).
  5. Pour cheese mixture over potatoes until fully covered.Sprinkle remaining grated cheese over the potatoes and bake until potatoes are cooked through and the top begins to brown.

    3. The slice of cheese is added with the remaining ingredients in the saucepan when making the creamy sauce to pour over the potatoes :)
