  1. I was sick of making scalloped potatoes with cream soup and milk. I found this recipe and have made it for years. Always a family request. The only thing I do different is to add some shredded Cheddar cheese and garlic powder to make a light cheese sauce. Just watch the salt. My family loves cheese. Thanks for such an awesome recipe. Wont make my potatoes any other way.
     
  2. These were great. Followed the recipe exactly. The DH loved them and had 3 servings.
     
  3. Excellent recipe! I did add some grated cheddar cheese on top. Everyone loved this.
     
  4. Made for Let's P-A-R-T-Y tag game 2009...Delicious!! Cut the recipe in half for DH and I (I have some leftover for lunch...yummy) but otherwise followed the directions. I served it with Recipe#34335#34335 and Recipe#79571#79571. Will be making this quite often. Thank you for a wonderful recipe.
     
  5. Was good! DH liked it a lot even as leftovers. (He is not a leftovers guy) Added frozen peas to a layer. I used beef stock, which added even more flavor, instead of chicken. I used some olive oil in place of the butter and made it gluten free using rice flour and soy free using Helmans olive oil mayonnaise. Do put all the onion no matter what you think, as it needs the flavour that doesnt come through when skimped. I made this more than once and I found it tasted better with chopped green onions rather than the cooking ones. Will make again.
