Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°.
- Add the butter to a medium size pot over medium heat and when it’s melted add in the onions and cook until lightly browned, which takes about 5 minutes while frequently stirring.
- Stir in garlic and cook just until fragrant, which takes about 20 to 30 seconds.
- Mix in the all-purpose flour to make a roux.
- Next, pour in the milk and bring to a boil over high heat until it becomes thick, like alfredo sauce. It should coat the back of a spoon.
- Finish by stirring in ½ the cheeses, salt, and pepper.
- Add a 1/3 of the cheese sauce to the bottom of a 7x11 casserole dish sprayed with non-stick spray.
- Layer on with half the potatoes, cheese, and a 1/3 of the sauce.
