  1. Thank you for a true recipe. This is what I grew up on. Classic simple ingredients. I use 1/2 milk and 1/2 cream, but honestly, no difference in taste.<br/><br/>One change, but it is simply a personal choice. I add a little thin sliced onion, but that is because my mom did. I made this before and making it again. Sorry I forgot to review the first time.<br/><br/>NO soup NO cheese, it is just right. I use this all the time and add ham, and sometimes pork chops and it turns out great like that and of course perfect as a side dish. Creamy and tender.<br/>Thx for such a nice classic!
     
  2. I was looking for a plain, old fashioned recipe to serve on Easter. This was easy and perfect to serve to "meat and potatoes" eaters.
     
  3. This made for an excellent potato dish when needing to add variety to my holiday menu. I preheated the milk in the micro wave before pouring over. I added an onion as well. This was really enjoyed and there were no leftovers. Thank you Joan.
     
  4. I was drawn to this recipe because of the technique. Usually you layer the potatoes and other things or have to mess with a cream sauce, whatever. The ease of this is great. I used fat free half and half and had a little curdling but nothing that effected the taste. I also added an onion, a sweet onion. We really enjoyed this dish.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am now a full time homemaker, having retired from a career in Market Resarch for over 20 years-a profession I entered after raising 4 children. Why this field after a degree in Music Education? Who knows? It just appealed to me and the hours were right at first when my children were still at home. I eventually went full-time, but last year decided to retire and join my husband who is a retired engineer. We have had a computer for over six years now and I love getting new recipes off the internet. I print them out and have a three ring binder full of them. Some of them prove to be duds, but most are keepers.
