For some reason my "scalloped' potatoes never seem to turn out; dry or not cooked enough. I made minor changes only because I needed more than 4 servings. Used Pyrex lasagna pan 13x9 and about 12 potatoes, enough to fill the pan. Didnt change the cheese recipe and it covered the potatoes to about 1/4" from top. Cooked for 80 minutes and potatoes were cooked perfectly! Salted and used onion powder instead of onions, nicely tasted and odd enough just enough cheese taste. NOW...trial and error will be to be eaten the next day in a crock pot Want to see if this dish can be cooked day before and kept warm in crock pot- if YES then this is a winner! Always never have oven space. Let's see!

I usually can mess up an easy recipe. I made this 3 times before I mastered it! Follow ingredients and instructions exactly. Grocery size brown bags worked best for me. More space allowed better shaking and coverge. Used wax vs foil which worked BEST. If you follow the instructions it will work out great. I found adding more popcorn to the brown bag did not work as it didn't cover as well. I made this for a fundraiser and got about 3 good size baggies per bake. Alot of work but it is really very good! I also cut the margarine in 1/2 which saved money to stretch it out. I normally use butter so I can imagine what real butter would have tasted like!!

AGREE! Great, simple chili that doesn't take much timeor ingredients. I also added cumin. I think this seasoning adds sweet/spicy to the taste. My picky family loved it and asked for more. I put it in the crock pot to simmer all day and it just melted all the flavors together. CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THIS RECIPE!
