Creamy Scalloped Potatoes

Creamy Scalloped Potatoes

First of all let me say that my wife insists, maybe that is too strong a word, my wife suggests that scalloped potatoes don’t have any cheese in them.  All well and good for normal scalloped potatoes; in fact we have a couple of different “cheesy” potatoes on our website, emealsforyou.com.  These all bring to mind au gratin potatoes, wonderful just cooked potatoes dripping in gooey cheese sauce, almost a meal unto themselves.

Our Creamy Scalloped Potatoes are just that, creamy, deliciously creamy, with just a hint of cheese.  They appear out of the oven gorgeously golden and unresistable.  Melt in your mouth potatoes with just enough crunch and a hint of thyme.  The best part is they are very simple and quick to make.  Watch these disappear from your family’s plates.  By the way, I didn’t hear anything further on the “no cheese in scalloped potatoes” theme from my wife once she tried these.

P.S. We paired these with slow-roasted ribs, corn relish and finished up with some Bourbon Gelato to welcome in the Fall season.
