Amazing Au Gratin Potatoes

By: Hallee

This is the perfect side dish for just about any meat main dish, from meatloaf t0 leg of lamb. I LOVE scalloped potatoes and au gratin potatoes. I didn’t used to make them because I worked and would get home so late to be able to put them in the oven and have them cooked in time for dinner, so to me they became a “special” side. Despite having my menu planning help me to know what to prepare when and how to have it ready in time for dinner, in my mind, scalloped and au gratin potatoes are special.

Here’s the menu for my family for the week of October 15th. I cannot believe that October is already half gone! As far as desserts go, I’m going to make a batch of pumpkin bread for a friend. I also have children complaining about the empty cookie jar, so I’m going to make a batch of Cinnamon Chip Oatmeal Raisin Cookies!

Here’s the menu for my family for the week of June 13th. As far as desserts go, we’re going with fresh fruits, fresh whipped cream, and maybe some Jell-O this week. We have Vacation Bible School all week, and they’ll be eating all sorts of snacks and such there that we don’t normally have around our household. Consequently, I’m going to try to keep the white sugar consumption down to a minimum.

And since we have Vacation Bible School all week, and have to be at the church every night early, I’m going to be pushing dinnertime up by about 90 minutes every day. Meals are going to be incredibly out of whack all week long.

Here’s the menu for my family for the week of February 20th. As far as desserts go, I’m going to make the kids a Deep Dark Chocolate Cake (HOW have I not posted that recipe yet? I will rectify that asap!) and will just have a container of whipped cream in the fridge to top it with as they get a slice!

A roux is a thickening agent made from some kind of fat with an equal portion of flour. You melt the fat, add the flour, then cook until the flour taste is removed.
