Scalloped Potatoes never tasted so good. These easy baked potatoes with two different types of cheese and a simple white sauce make these Creamy Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes  the perfect side dish to any meal.

When you think of comfort food what comes to mind? Soups, stews, casseroles? How about scalloped Potatoes? How about Creamy Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes?

Since we are almost into potato planting season (yes my mother-in-law plants those too)! I thought I would use up some of last years crop in this Creamy Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes.

 

shredded cheese, parmesan and sliced potatoes for scalloped potato recipe

Scalloped potatoes in my house are something we all love, my kids renamed them Canadian Potatoes. So I thought I would make good scalloped potatoes even better.

All you need to do is add a creamy cheese. I decided to use  a really nice soft creamy Italian cheese called Fontina. If you don’t have this cheese in your area a nice Gruyère or Gouda will do the trick.

Top with a little freshly grated Parmesan cheese and your Canadian Potatoes become Canadian/Italian Potatoes.

        Is there ANYTHING better than that browned crusty top? I don’t think so! I’m sure that is what heaven is made out of! These look terrific Rosemary! I usually make mine with a mix of cream and whole milk – so, I’m glad to see yours made with milk and they look every bit as good as the ones that I make – and less fat – all good. 🙂 Beautiful photos too!

        Mamma always made the scalloped potatoes for our gatherings and my kids loved them. Once she got older the job fell into my lap — I usually make them with Gruyere but I think for our next gathering that calls for scalloped potatoes I’ll use fontina. Grazie per la ricetta.
