Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes
Description
Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes brings together sliced yellow potatoes softened by a brief boil with onions for added flavor. These are layered with a creamy mixture of condensed mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, and black pepper in a casserole dish. Sharp cheddar cheese adds richness and a golden topping when baked. The final dish offers tender potatoes enveloped in a smooth, cheesy sauce with a slight savory edge from the onions.
This recipe is ideally served as a side dish to accompany meats or vegetable mains. The mix of creamy and cheesy textures gives a hearty feel that adds comfort to any meal.
Baking the potatoes with some of the sauce at the bottom prevents sticking and ensures even cooking. The recipe uses a 2-quart casserole or similar sized dish to allow the layers to cook through nicely. Cooking until the top is bubbly assures the cheese is melted and the dish is heated thoroughly.

- 2 pounds potato yellow
- 10.5 ounces condensed cream of mushroom soup chicken or celery soup, 1 can
- 1 cup milk
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- black pepper to taste

- Put a little bit of the soup mixture in the bottom of a greased 2 QT casserole dish, a 9×9 pan, or an oven-safe pan. Layer ½ of the potatoes, ½ of the soup mixture, and ½ of the cheese. Repeat layers ending with cheese.
