CHEESY POTATO RECIPE VARIATIONS AND TIPS

Use these tips and tricks to make sure your dish turns out perfectly:

• Use a food processor or mandoline to slice the potatoes uniformly. This will make sure they cook evenly.
• Make sure the potato slices are well coated with the cheese sauce so they don’t dry out.

If you would like to vary up the flavors of this dish, here are a few tasty suggestions:

• You can swap out the Yukon Gold potatoes for another sturdy potato variety like russet potatoes.
• Replace some cheddar cheese with shredded Gruyere to give the dish a flavor of gratin potatoes.
• Add diced ham, chopped bacon, or shredded chicken to make the dish more of an entree.
• Amp up the flavor by stirring diced jalapenos, chives, or sliced green onions into the cheesy potatoes before putting them under the broiler.
• Add additional flavor to the cheese sauce with garlic, Ranch powder, or dried thyme.
• Top the potatoes with bread crumbs or crushed potato chips.
