Time Saving Scalloped Potatoes

I'm convinced that there is no way to take a good picture of scalloped potatoes. They're just plain ugly. But there is a way to cut cooking time in half!


Ingredients:
2 lbs new yellow potatoes, unpeeled
1 onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
2 cups milk
Mrs Dash seasoning to taste (or salt and pepper)
3/4 cup shredded cheddar
1/4 cup shredded parmesan

Start by scrubbing the potatoes clean then slice them pretty thinly on a mandolin. New potatoes = no peeling (time saving!) And here's the trick ... place them in a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Then gently simmer for about 5 minutes. Then drain.
Grease an 8" deep baking dish. Starting with some onion slices, layer onions and potatoes alternating as you go. You can also give a few shakes of Mrs Dash every now and then.
In a saucepan melt butter and whisk in the flour. Cook 1 minute then whisk in the milk and cook 1-2 minutes to thicken. Add more Mrs Dash to the sauce then pour over the potatoes and onions in the baking dish.
Top with cheese and bake at 375°F for 35-40 minutes. 

Yep... ugly, but tasty 😋
