Betty’s Scalloped Potatoes with Cheese Recipe
ADVERTISEMENTS
Welcome back!
In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make a large casserole of Scalloped Potatoes with Cheese. This is a perfect accompaniment to her dinner of Herbed Chicken Crunch, Sauteed Zucchini and Yellow Squash, fresh green beans from the Farmer’s Market, and a large croissant! Ingredients: 6 medium potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4″ thick (I used Russet, but any variety is fine.) 3 tablespoons butter or margarine 1/4 cup flour 1 teaspoon salt 2 cups milk (for sauce) 2 cups shredded Velveeta cheese (You may substitute any variety of shredded cheese that you like.) 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley (or 1 teaspoon dried chopped parsley) 1/4 cup finely chopped onion 2 cups additional milk (for pouring over casserole to come to the top of the potatoes) cooking oil spray salt and black pepper, to taste Prepare the sliced potatoes, and cover them with cold water in a large container, and set aside. In a medium saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter or margarine. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup flour, stirring until lumps are dissolved.

Stir in 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley. Spray a very large casserole dish (13-inch by 9-inch by 2-inch) with cooking oil spray, and place 1/3 of the cheese sauce on the bottom of the dish. Spread it out evenly. Now, place 1/2 of the sliced potatoes in a layer …

@mcalislr Yes, I do make a pumpkin roll, but I don’t think I will be doing one this year. My good YouTube friend, Lynn of Lynnsrecipes just uploaded a gorgeous pumpkin roll a few days ago; you might want to check it out. She has wonderful recipes.

@bettyskitchen I think she means if it is a side or main dish and what can it be served with.

@MsP0nce You may add either of those, but the casserole is good with just salt and a little parsley. Thanks for your sweet comment!

@cadettipk No, that’s not necessary. You may speed up the baking time by boiling them until they are partially done, if you like.
