The kids were coming over for dinner last Sunday and Nick’s fiance Bri requested “cheesy potatoes”. I have a recipe within a box that I’ve had for years of a potato dish that my mom and oldest sister Shym used to make. (It’s funny when I’m looking through oodles of recipes I’ve written down, how my memory works allowing me to remember just how big or small the size of paper was, and the fact that the paper had a torn lower right corner) Well I found it, but I decided to lighten my version up a bit! I omitted a lot of the fat by using light soup and cheeses. I also wanted to add some creaminess so I added light sour cream wow for free.
I always plan to make enough food so that the kids can bring home left overs. Michelle’s boyfriend Jacob had to work and was unable to come for dinner, so I planned to send some home for him because he is a potato lover! I was also having the girls over the next night so I used about a third of the mixture in a small baking dish that I would share with them. So if you don’t have a big gang to feed, I would recommend cutting this recipe in half!
