4 large potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter, melted

  • Spray top of casserole with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Cover and bake 20 minutes in lower third of the oven.
  • Uncover and bake an additional 40-50 minutes until potatoes are done and casserole is golden brown on top.
  • If you are lucky, the bottom potatoes will be a little browned, too!
  • VARIATION: During last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle casserole with 4 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
  • Let melt and serve.
