"Au gratin peas and potatoes" is a classic side dish that is sure to be a hit with friends and family. This hearty and comforting dish is made with a combination of tender potatoes, sweet peas, and a creamy cheese sauce. The potatoes are typically sliced or diced and then boiled until they are fork-tender. The peas are also boiled until they are tender, but still retain a slight crispness. The cheese sauce is made with a combination of butter, flour, milk, and cheese, and is typically seasoned with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. The potatoes and peas are then combined with the cheese sauce and baked in a casserole dish until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

AU GRATIN PEAS AND POTATOES
While this delicious potato skillet is a wonderful side dish, we find it satisfying enough to be a main course, too. The skillet preparation takes less time than it does to bake an au gratin casserole or scalloped potatoes-but it's still good old-fashioned comfort food at its best! -Marie Peterson, DeForest, Wisconsin
