ham & potatoes au gratin
From a 1961 cookbook titled Casserole Cook Book by Better Homes & Gardens. I made this on 5 Feb 2023 and this uses cooked, cubed potatoes, so there is less time in the oven. The cheese sauce is light but is a nice touch to this easy and tasty dish, very well liked by the family and myself.
