Love This Cheesy Potatoes Gratin Recipe!
I love these Cheesy Potatoes Gratin. Who doesn’t love potatoes as a side dish with almost any protein? My cowboy is a meat and potatoes man and I’m constantly searching for new potato or starch dishes to have. I mean, you can’t cook mashed potatoes every single day. Well, maybe, but I like to mix it up a little.
This casserole is loaded with parmesan cheese and cheddar cheese. You can use white or yellow cheddar, which
I served this dish with my Instant Pot Chuck Roast and they were the perfect side dish. https://acooknamedrebecca.com/so-fast-and-delicious-instant-pot-chuck-roast/. You honestly don’t need anything else because I had carrots with the pot roast as an extra vegetable. The roast gravy was so good on these!

I also make Scalloped Potatoes with onions, and this recipe is very similar. This is easy to throw together, stick in the oven, and you are done. I used a mandolin to cut my potatoes, so if you have one, please use as it will give you uniform potato sizes and much quicker.
