Au Gratin Potatoes

Ingredients:

3 tablespoons butter

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 & 1/2 teaspoons salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

2 cups milk

1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese

5 cups thinly sliced potatoes (about 6 medium)

1/2 cup chopped onion

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In saucepan, melt butter over low heat.

Stir in flour, salt, and pepper until smooth.

Gradually add milk and bring to a boil.

Cook and stir two minutes or until thickened.

Remove from heat and stir in cheese until melted.

Add potatoes and onions.

Transfer to greased 2 quart baking dish.

Cover and bake one hour.

Uncover and bake an additional 30 to 40 minutes until potatoes are tender.

Pictured above are the Au Gratin Potatoes I made recently. I didn't cut them into slices, but rather cubed them for this dish.

Moving the clocks forward one hour on Sunday for Daylight savings Time has made me tired all week. I am ready for the weekend, so I can sleep in a little bit. Hopefully I will adjust quickly. :)
