Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes and Ham


I guess I've been making lots of comfort food lately. It's not because of cooler weather,either, as it's been absolutely gorgeous out. Brent and I have been taking advantage of it with long walks in the evenings. When fall hits, I just crave comfort food!

This is another dish we love. Basically its just the regular scalloped potato recipe with ham and cheese added. One recipe makes a few meals for us, and that's OK with us, as it's even better the next day.

 It's so rich and creamy!





Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes and Ham

2 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. flour
salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 c. milk

Melt the butter and stir in the flour. Add salt and pepper. Cook about 1 minute, slowly adding the milk , whisking until it thickens. Set aside.

4 large russets, peeled and sliced

What temperature? And how big of a casserole dish do you use?
