Scalloped Potatoes

So, tonight we are having grilled ham steak with scalloped potatoes and broccoli. Late last year we bought half of a hog and ham steaks were one of the things that we requested. They are good fried up in a pan or grilled. Just don't grill them too long or they tend to get dried out. Fortunately for me, the weather has taken a big dip and having the oven on this evening is just the thing to warm the house up! :o)

The scalloped potatoes recipe below is another recipe from my Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook. It bakes up golden brown and creamy. Perfect for a chilly spring evening.

Scalloped Potatoes
Serve 6 @ 4 WW points each

1/4 c. chopped onion
1/4 c. light butter
1/4 c. flour
2 1/2 c. 1% milk
5 large potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (5 cups)

Preheat oven to 350°. To make sauce, cook onion in butter till tender but not brown. Stir in flour, 1 1/2 t. salt, and 1/8 t. pepper. Add milk. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 1-2 minutes more. Remove from heat. Place half of the sliced potatoes in a greased 2 qt. casserole. Cover with 1/2 of the sauce. Repeat layers. Bake, covered in a 350° oven for 45 minutes, stirring once. Uncover; bake about 30 minutes more or until the potatoes are done.

ENJOY!!
