Scalloped Potatoes

WANT TO SAVE THIS RECIPE?

A few weeks ago, I was at the store (go figure), and I was there to pick up eggs for my kids. Well, two of the good eating kids, they really love eggs. No matter how you cook them, scrambled or fried, but they’re big fans of hard-boiled eggs. While browsing the store, I happily redirected myself from the dairy department to see if corned beef was on sale as it was approaching St. Patty’s Day. The corned beef was not on sale, however, there was an ongoing deal that really caught my attention. Buy a ham, get a carton of eggs, breakfast sausages and a turkey breast for FREE! I’m a sucker for this stuff, and the ham looked great, and I need eggs, right?

But when it comes to ham, I only think of one thing and one thing only. Scalloped potatoes, or often called au gratin. I don’t know what it is, but it’s the perfect balance, like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Ham and scalloped potatoes seem to be something I remember eating growing up, but the potatoes were in a box. You know the type. That box that says scalloped potatoes on top, and you add milk, butter and put in the oven? Well, those aren’t the ones. These are the real deal and super simple to do.

    My wife made this recipe, it was excellent. But regarding the directions, it says to start off by “taking out your jar of sauce”, what jar of sauce?

      I love scalloped potatoes and this recipe looks delicious. I want to make them, but I have a question. You mention a jar of sauce in Instruction 1 but this is not listed in the ingredients. What type of sauce? Thanks.

    • Linda Snow

      Was ready to make the scalloped potatoes recipe and it calls for a jar of sauce. What is that please?

      I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be sauce pan and not jar of sauce.

    This looks delicious, but what jar of sauce?

  5. L Clark

    something missing in the ingredients. Instructs to start with your jar of sauce. NONE listed in ingredients. what jar of sauce?

    • Peggy larkin

      I think its a miss ptint. The sauce is the cream and the other ingredients.

      • Pamela

        This is for everyone wondering about the jar of sauce.
        I too was confused, but I realized it was a misprint and it was talking about the cream and seasonings and making it first in a saucepan.
        Then follow the rest of the recipe and y’all will be fine.
        Hopefully she’ll notice this at some point and correct it to help everyone.
        I realized that was what she meant when I was double checking with a different recipe I have.
        Going to try this recipe tonight because I’ve been craving scalloped potatoes.
        Best of luck to y’all trying it now.
