Description
I found this recipe a long time ago and it is so much faster to bake than your regular recipe. Still you get that flavour of the old-fashioned favorite, scalloped potatoes.
Ingredients
- Potatoes
- Onion
- Butter
- All-purpose Flour

- Drain
- Heat butter in same saucepan over medium heat

- Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil
