The BEST Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes
This is our go to scalloped potato recipe that we make during the holiday season, and occasionally even for dinner on a weekend (when the cheesy potato cravings hit).
Here are a few reasons why this cheesy garlic scalloped potatoes is so delicious:
Flavored with garlic – I love my garlic and fresh garlic is used in this cheesy garlic scalloped potatoes to make the cheese sauce incredibly flavorful.
Chicken broth – you cannot go wrong with potatoes and creamy cheese that is infused with chicken broth. Just like my awesome 15-Minute Queso (Cheese Dip) recipe, which seem like a complete different food item, but in many ways it is not, chicken broth brings another dimension of flavor to the creamy sauce and elevates it.
Creamy but not crazy heavy – this is a creamy and thick potato dish, but not so much that the cream overpower the potatoes. I like to think that the creaminess and cheese enhances the scalloped potatoes, and not overtake it completely.
