Cheesy au Gratin Potatoes
Ordinary ingredients become extraordinary when combined in this comfort-food casserole.

6 medium boiling or baking potatoes (2 pounds)
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
1 tablespoon Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups milk
2 cups shredded natural sharp Cheddar cheese (8 ounces)
1/4 cup Progresso® dry bread crumbs (any flavor)
Paprika


1. Heat oven to 375ºF.
2. Scrub potatoes but do not peel. Cut into 1/8-inch slices to measure about 4 cups.
3. Melt butter in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion in butter about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until bubbly; remove from heat.
4. Stir in milk and 1 1/2 cups of the cheese. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute.
5. Spread potatoes in ungreased 1 1/2-quart casserole. Pour cheese sauce over potatoes.
6. Bake uncovered 1 hour. Mix remaining cheese and the bread crumbs; sprinkle over potatoes. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake uncovered 15 to 20 minutes longer or until top is brown and bubbly.


... or you can be lazy like me and use the Betty Crocker Au Gratin Potatoes box mix thing. It has everything you need to make them, you just add water, milk and butter. So much easier than chopping potatoes, and very very tasty!
