Souper Easy Au Gratin Potatoes

CrystalA's Note:

This is an easy potato recipe when I don't feel like making a real cheese sauce.

• Total Time: 1 hrs 15 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 1 hrs

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 3 medium red potatoes , thinly sliced
• 1 (10 ¾ ounce) can condensed cream of chicken with herbs soup
• 1 ¾ cups milk
• ½ cup Cheese Whiz
• 1 cup cheese
• 1 cup of diced ham
• ¼ cup butter
• ¼ flour
• salt and pepper
• paprika

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375°.
2. I used a 10x7-inch dish for this recipe.
3. Slice potatoes (I leave the skins on because it is quicker, but you can take them off if you like).
4. Mix together the soup, milk, and Cheese Whiz (if you do not want to use Cheese Whiz it should still turn out fine, I have yet to try it that way).
5. Cut butter into small cubes.
6. Grease pan or spray it.
7. Now layer in dish.
8. Start with half of the potatoes.
9. Then half of the butter, half of flour, salt n pepper, and half of the soup mix.
10. Then add half of the cheese.
11. Repeat layers.
12. Cover and bake for 45-1 hour (It only took mine 45 minutes, but I sliced my potatoes very thin).
13. Then remove cover.
14. Sprinkle with paprika and cook for another 15 minutes or until done.

It was very tasty! But there was too much sauce and not enough potatoes for us. I would recommend using a 9x13 pan and 5 potatoes for that much sauce. But good cheesy flavor. I used garlic salt instead of regular salt, and it added a little something.

Another dish I made for a pot luck dinner we were having (I tripled the recipe). I peeled the potatoes and then followed your directions exactly. This is a perfect dish when feeding a crowd. The potatoes were creamy and cheesy. Actually this is a meal in itself. Thanks again, CrystalA.
