My family loves cheese and bacon… and potatoes! I prefer to make scalloped potatoes from scratch vs the boxed kind. There is so much more flavor to them. Hope your family enjoys this recipe as much as ours does.

6potatoes; peeled & thinly sliced
1/2 conion; chopped
2 ccheddar cheese; shredded
1 cbacon; cooked and crumbled
2 cmilk
1/2 chalf & half
4 Tbspflour

Use a large pot. Saute chopped onions in butter till soft but not browned. In a small bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper. Stir flour mixture into onion mixture, add milk and half and half. Stir and cook over medium heat till mixture begins to thicken (about 3 minutes).
