I'd give this 4 1/2 stars, but that's not an option. These were really tasty and easy to prepare. I love that there's no heavy cream called for in the recipe, but still you get a rich side dish without all those calories! I used a mandolin to get the potato slices nice and thin, and cut the recipe about in half using only two good-sized potatoes. I baked this in a small Dutch oven, so my potatoes were layered a bit thick, but only baked for an hour at 370 degrees. I added a bit of garlic powder and parmesan cheese to the sauce. Yummy!

Fantastic! This was a big hit at my dinner party. I put the (low fat) cream cheese in the freezer for about two hours to make cutting it easier. Have your cheddar ready to go before preparing the cream cheese. That way you're ready to start assembling as soon as you've sliced the cream cheese (it will get soft quickly). I had some roasted red peppers on hand, so I used those in place of the pimento. I served with wheat crackers and pita chips. Yummy!

Really yummy and easy! I only used one red pepper, half of a red onion, and one Russet potato because it was just my husband and I. Perfect amount for the two of us! Even though I had fewer veggies, I made almost the same amount of sauce. I also added some minced garlic and a sprinkling of sea slat, and I didn't have fresh thyme so I used about 1 1/2 teaspoons dried. I'll be making this again and again with other vegetables and different herbs. Thank you Saundra!
