Scalloped Potatoes

"I'm always asked to fix my scalloped potatoes for any family dinner. Easy to make any time of the year. Omit onion if you must or do what I do - make one pan with onion and one without. The one with is always gone before the other. *You can use Half n Half & milk if you prefer a richer cheese sauce. **Use as much mustard as you like - yellow prepared, coarse deli, poupon...whatever you prefer."

  1. This is the one! Throw all the other recipes out. It is the best, the entire family is looking at me differently since I made this.
     
  2. These are so delicious! I didn't have time to boil the potatoes, wanted to pop this in the oven before going to a soccer game, so I microwaved them to the par-cooked stage, left peels on, sliced thin and did the rest as directed. These were great! Thanks for posting CindiJ I will make this again! Made for 2009 Spring PAC
