I haven't tried this yet, but it sounds easy and very tastey. I know my husband will like it.

I made this recipe exactly as written, except used 1% milk instead of fat-free. The white sauce cooks up way too stiff to mix into the potatoes. I wound up with separate layers of potatoes, onions and sauce. The potatoes did not cook because there was no liquid to cook them in. After it was done, I added more milk, stirred, and baked longer and it was tasty. The sauce just needs 2 1/2 cups of milk to make it saucy, not stiff.

I have made this several times and they are the best and easiest Scalloped Potatoes that I have ever made. My grandaughter and her friend visited us for a week last summer and both asked me for the recipe to take home to their mothers. The friend said she had never had such good potatoes. The girls re-heated left overs and enjoyed them just as much the next day.

Very easy and very good. I threw in left over ham and green beans for a one dish meal and used sharp cheddar cheese. Will add this one to my recipe box.

Well, the way I did it this was no longer a potato recipe, but it was still excellent. I substituted radishes for potatoes. I cut off either end of the radishes and left the peeling on, then sliced them. Otherwise I followed the recipe, but added a little cayenne pepper to spice it up. Very good.
