I found a potato recipe which I knew I had to make for Easter dinner, so I did. It was unbelievably delicious! Seriously.

Sage and Cheddar Potato Gratin

Sage-and-Cheddar-Potato-Gratin

Ingredients

2 tsp McCormick sage, rubbed
1/2 tsp McCormick ground black pepper
3 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 pkg (8oz) shredded Cheddar cheese (2 cups)
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup chicken broth

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix sage, salt and pepper in small bowl. The recipe calls for thinly sliced potatoes and onions, but I prefer to dice up my onions so that’s what I did.

2. Layer 1/3 of the potatoes and 1/2 of the onion in lightly greased 13×9-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with 1 tsp of the sage mixture and 1/3 of the cheese. Repeat layers. Top with remaining potatoes, sage mixture and cheese.

    I actually want to try this Sage and Cheddar Potato Gratin. My mom gave me a 5lb bag of potatoes and I have extra cheese in my fridge. This would go great with our chicken tonight.

  294. Debra S says

    I didn’t need to look any further than the “Bloomin’ Brie Bowl. I just was getting my inventory of items for tonight’s dinner and said to myself. Oh man- look at this Brie in here, I forgot I bought that last week. Must do something with it this week, yum. The Brie Bowl looks so good. Some nights some cheese, cold sausage, and a nice green salad is all I do for dinner.

  296. Rachel Miller says
