Scalloped Potatoes

Potato fans, you will love this easy cheesy scalloped potatoes recipe! It’s quick and easy to prepare and the results are outstanding. Sliced russet potatoes are baked in a creamy cheddar sauce. For my version of this classic dish, I used cornstarch in place of flour and half and half instead of heavy cream to lighten it up a bit without losing the texture and flavor. It’s my go-to combo for almost all of my sauces and it never fails! The potatoes are cut into 1/8″ thick slices and cook perfectly without falling apart or being undercooked. It’s the secret to perfect scalloped potatoes! Enjoy!

Easy Mashed Sweet Potatoes

The classic sweet potato casserole is my family’s favorite holiday side dish. It’s the toasted marshmallow or pecan topping that makes it so good. But when it comes to mashed sweet potatoes, for a long time, I was falling short. It was just lacking flavor. So I set on a mission to make them the best ever and here is the result!

My Mashed Sweet Potatoes are spiced with cinnamon and cloves (don’t skip either one!), creamed with butter (no milk or cream), and jazzed up with orange (juiced and zested). I am obsessed with this mix of flavors! It’s perfect for the holiday season. Enjoy!
