Day 203 – Potatoes Au Gratin

Tonight it’s a side dish!
You can never have enough side dishes with those wonderful meals you’re always making and potatoes as a side are always a winner.

Potatoes Au Gratin – serves 6

4 medium potatoes
2 cups whipping cream
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, plus an additional 1/4 cup
1/4 cup chopped green onions (about 4), plus extra for garnish
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Shred potatoes using a food processor.
Lightly grease an 8 X 8-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine potatoes, cream, 1 1/ 2 cups cheese, onions, salt, and pepper, mixing well.

Place mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Bake for 40 minutes, until golden and bubbly.
Garnish with remaining green onions.

I rate everything I bake on a scale of 1-4 with 4 being the best.
It was unanimous that these Potatoes Au Gratin be given 3 1/2 rolling pins.
The family really liked these and said they would like me to make them again.
The individual dishes I used were the size of about 3/4 cup, so I had some mixture left over and probably could have made 2 more if I’d had the extra ramekins. And even though each serving was 3/4 cup, not one of us finished eating the whole thing.
We thought it was quite tasty; it was just filling, especially with the other food I made for dinner, too.
We also don’t eat a lot here at the 365 home.
Thank you so much for reading!
Happy baking!
