Love these potatoes. I doubled the recipe and they came out perfectly. Love the Swiss cheese. I covered the potatoes the last half hour or so to prevent the top from browning too much. Delish! Made for Photo Tag.

made for zwt5, this recipe is very good and similar to au gratin. i baked it in a convection oven at 400f for 1 hour and it was perfect. i used jarlsburg cheese and put it in the broiler at the end to brown.
