For Love of Potatoes

Just wanted to share another recipe with y'all. I came up with this one when I didn't have milk for scalloped potatoes but totally wanted some kind of cheesy potatoes (what can I say, I like cheese on my scalloped potatoes).

This should fulfill any buttery-cheesy-potato-ey needs for the Southerners out there :)

Super Cheesy Potatoes



4 baking potatoes, scrubbed clean
1 stick of butter, melted
2 tbsp minced garlic (we use the stuff in the jar)
2 cups cheddar cheese (or whatever favorite cheese you have)

Slice potatoes into 1/4 inch slices and place upright in rows in greased 8×8 baking dish. Pour melted butter over potatoes, coating well. Spoon minced garlic over rows of potatoes. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

Remove potatoes from oven and discard aluminum foil. Cover potatoes with cheese and return to oven, baking for 15 minutes.

I'm telling y'all ... Hubby and I love these, as evidenced by the fact that we had them twice within 3 days. Probably not the best food out there for us health-wise, but mmmmmm-mm! They.Are.Good. As you can see, we tried to make up for that by eating with grilled chicken and steamed veggies :)



Enjoy!
