SCALLOPED POTATOES FOR TWO



Scalloped Potatoes for Two image

Since I sometimes have to cook for just me, I've been on a search for recipes that make enough for just one or two people. So when I came across this one in the TOH 2002 Annual Recipes that was sent in to them by Edith Jennings of Prarie City, Iowa, I knew I had to try it.The time for peeling the potatoes has been included in the prep time. I guess if you wanted to speed up the time it takes to prepare this recipe, you could slightly cook the potatoes in the microwave or on the stove top. The addition of the French Fried Onions was my idea. Sumitted to " ZAAR " on October 21, 2009.

SCALLOPED POTATOES



Scalloped Potatoes image

The perfect side dish to an elegant or celebratory main course, or the welcome addition to any potluck supper, scalloped potatoes are one of those dishes that seem complicated, but are deceptively simple. You'll need to put in a bit of "peeler time" to get the spuds ready for the oven, but after that it's just a long bake and a short standing period to let the sauce thicken. Then, voila! you're ready to serve.
