I made these, instead of scalloped potatoes, to go with a new meatloaf recipe that I was trying. I only made one modification, after preparing them as described here...I added a small container of sour cream. The potatoes were AWESOME and perfectly complemented the meatloaf. My husband was absolutely in love with these. They'll definitely be making a return appearance to my dinner table.

So simple and so good! Honestly, this is simple enough for a week night and good enough for Thanksgiving. I did use a but more garlic than ask for but I usually do in most things. The potatoes cooked while I did the did the chops and veggies then it was a matter of 3 mins to smash up those spuds and enjoy.
