I grew up in a very traditional, old school home. My father worked full time outside of the house, many weeks at 60 hours or more. My mother was a homemaker. She stayed in the house and took care of four kids, did all the cooking and cleaning, and made sure that we were always operating at the optimum level. My dad was a man of few words.
He would come home from work, wash his hands, and sit at the table and read the paper usually until dinner was served. Dinner meant a meat, potato, vegetable, and a bread.
Every night, that’s what we had. Mom always tried to make up some different potatoes so that we weren’t always eating mashed. My favorite were her au gratin style ones, just like this recipe.
They were so rich and delicious, it seemed like we were fighting over the last little bit anytime that she made them. Now that I have the recipe, I can make them at home for my family whenever I want!
Whenever I show up to family gatherings these days, my loved ones are waiting for me to bring these through the door.
I will usually make them ahead of time at home, and then toss them in the slow cooker for easier transporting. They will stay good that way for several hours, if they even last that long. They are always a huge crowd pleaser. These potatoes are great alone or paired up with any of your favorite entrees. If you want, you can turn this into a meaty, hearty meal by adding some cooked, ground beef or sausage!
