Shredded Potato Au Gratin


These potatoes were a perfect compliment to our Ham this Easter. I found the recipe at real mom kitchen.  I'm sure you have all experienced the Mormon Potatoes or Funeral Potatoes. These yummy potatoes are just as easy to prepare but without the use of the processed cream soups. If you haven't tried these you should. The cream makes them taste like a cheesey scalloped potato.

trying this for sure! i can't believe how many recipes for things include canned soups, i can't have them b/c of the wheat but they have so much sodium and are so processed.
