This recipe is fantastic! Exactly what I was looking for, when I went searching for a scalloped potato and ham recipe. Wonderfully creamy with subtle flavors. I added some chives/parsley to each layer of potatoes/ham/onion but otherwise no changes. Loved this, thank you! This is like a delicous, hearty dish you might find at a church dinner.
