Sunday Supper

During half time of the Packer game, I quickly put together supper for tonight.  The best part was it took me alittle longer because I had 3 dogs staring at me when I was cutting up the ham, so I had to share with them.  They wanted to ensure that it was edible for me to eat later.  I am so happy that I have them around. :)   So when I came back to the game the Packers had scored twice and taken the lead and never looked back.  So finally, for supper I had Scalloped Potatoes with Ham.  It was great and reminded me of home when I was younger.  Here is the recipe.  I hope you enjoy.

1 Medium onion, chopped
1 tbsp veggie oil
3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
4 baking potatoes, cut into 1/4-in slices, I used my mandalin to slice them that thickness
1/2 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 cups chopped cooked ham
2 cups cheddar cheese, divided
1 3/4 cups whipping cream
2 tbsp butter, cut into pieces

1. Saute onions in oil until tender and then add garlic and saute for another 30 seconds/  Remove from heat and set aside.  Slice potatoes and place in a big bowl.
2.  Preheat oven to 400.  Combine salt, pepper, and flour and sprinkle over potatoes and toss to coat.  Place half of the potatoes in a greased 9x13 baking dish.  Top with the ham, onion mixure, and 1 cup cheese.  Top with remaning potatoes.  Pour cream over the top, place butter on top and cover with aluminum foil.
3. Bake for 50 minutes.  Uncover and top with remaining cheese and bake for another 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.  Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

There is my 1st recipe.  Tomorrow Chicken Tetrazzini is on the menu.  Hope you all enjoy and see you tomorrow.
