Creamy Cheesy Potatoes


This recipe is basically taking a bechamel sauce and adding cheese and potatoes. You can use your favorite type of cheese or even add some sour cream and bacon to make a loaded cheesy potato casserole!



4 potatoes, scrubbed clean and thinly sliced
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Salt, Pepper and Garlic Powder, to taste

Bechamel Sauce:
¼ cup Butter or Margarine
¼ cup All-Purpose Flour
2 cups Milk
3 eggs, beaten

In a sauce pan, melt butter. Stir in flour and salt & pepper to taste. Add milk; cook and stir until thick and bubbly. Temper the eggs, then slowly stir mixture into eggs. Add cheese and stir. Add seasonings and potatoes. Simmer, covered, on the stove top or cover and place in a 350 degree oven for about 30 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender.
