I love being able to have this in the pan, ready to go long before company arrives. It is nice to have the kitchen cleaned up before the meal actually goes in the oven so I can relax and savor the moments and memories without worrying about the mess.
Plus, this hearty comfort food goes with just about anything. Whether you are serving chicken, beef, or pork, go ahead and grab a bag of spuds.
This is what Rachel says about this yummy dish.
“Is it just me or do sc
alloped potatoes scream spring to everyone else? Layers of thinly sliced potatoes, lots of cheese, garlic and cream. What’s not to love. It is heavenly!”
Classic scalloped potatoes have no cheese
My mom always had a layer of cheese in hers.. I loved the faint flavor of cheddar, but that could just be the way she made it when I was growing up. If she had some left over ham..she would dice that up and put it in as well.
