My family LOVES these potatoes! I have never really had a taste for "scalloped potatoes" guess I never cared for the white creamy curdled looking stuff, BUT found these again on FB and these are again...(singing) AMAZINGGGGG!! I made them for Thanksgiving this year and of course there was none left for leftovers.
