Home Style Scalloped Potatoes

Home Style Scalloped Potatoes with sliced russet potatoes and a creamy cheese sauce. Great for a side dish for a variety of meals.

These Home Style Scalloped Potatoes are an old fashioned recipe that is very simple and the cheese can be swapped out for any type you would like. I made them with a mixed Italian cheese today but frequently use a cheddar. Use whatever cheese you please! You cannot go wrong.

I posted this recipe today in thought of Easter coming up and thinking about what is going to be on our menu. Every Easter, we make a huge ham and multiple side dishes including these scalloped potatoes. Potatoes and ham are just the perfect combination in any form. Get some creamy sauce and potatoes on a fork with a bit of salty ham and oh yes, so heavenly. Comfort food at its finest. We will also make a vegetable side and large salad. Oh, and rolls. Cannot miss the rolls for Easter dinner.

Skin on the potatoes? Peel or not to peel? This is up to you. I prefer to keep skins on potatoes as much as possible but some people don’t love the skin so if you are feeding a large group, think about peeling the potatoes to make everyone happy- if that is possible.

What type of dishes does your family typically eat for Easter? Are scalloped potatoes always on your table?
