I didn't have any hash browns so I diced up potatoes. Cooked the casserole the same amount of time and it turned out great. I also used sour cream and mayonnaise and a little mild cheddar cheese with the american. We like things a little spicier so I added some cayenne and garlic. I will definitely make it again.

I thought this was rather dry w/o a lot of taste. I added a sprinkle of onions for extra taste too. I will try again with modifications.

Great dish! We baked at 350 as posts suggested. We also covered the top layer of potatoes with a coating of paprika (because we like it so much) and then covered that with the last layer of cheese. It was watery when baked in a two quart casserole so next time we may use a baking pan to cook off some of the excess moisture. This will be a regular side dish from now on! Thanks Sara!!

I liked this dish, but it didn't taste any different than au grautin potatoes. It was too dry for scalloped potatoes and needed more seasoning.

I'll try this again sometime. As others recommended, I kicked up the oven temperature. It looked as if it were done after 50 minutes, but the potatoes weren't soft all the way through. It was decent, but not fabulous. Beware--take a test bite before serving. I was so sure it was done, I just served it. My bad--I think this one has potential but even at it's best--I'm guessing is only a "4."

This was a great dish that I will definetly make again. I changed it a little because I didn't have enough potatoes. I added fresh green beans, zuchinni, mushrooms and onions in the layers and baked for an hour at 350. It was tasty.

This took even longer than an hour in my oven. Next time I will cover the potatoes and cook them on a higher temperature maybe 350. Other than that they turned out really good!

This recipe tasted fine, although it is not very visually appealing. I would never serve it to guests. The flour and cheese got a little lumpy. The taste was good, very cheesey. I will probably make again simply because it is so easy. I also baked at 350 for a little over an hour. I do not recommend putting any paprika on the top layer though, mine burned.

This recipie didn't rock my world as I expected from the other reviews. It was cheesy enough. I cooked it at 350, and I still didn't think it was cooked enough. I ended up putting it in the microwave to finish it up quickly.

I don't know if it is a typo, but 1 hour at 250 F is not enough for this recipe. I tried it and it took at least 2 hours before I could put a fork in the potatoes. Try it at 350 F instead.

I was looking for a potatoe recipe yesterday for our dinner. I found this one and I have to say it was DELICIOUS! It is so easy and it turned out real cheesy. I have to admit, when I poured the milk in I was a bit concerned. I told my husband we were going to either have a potatoe casserole or potatoe soup. He said soup would be fine!! It turned out great. Thank you for posting it. It is a keeper.

I have never made scalloped potatoes from scratch before - now I can't figure out why not. This was an EASY recipe, which you can make to your liking. I made 4 layers, with a different type of cheese in each layer. I had something else in the oven, so cooked it at 350 degrees. My husband had 4 helpings! It turned out a little runny, so I will have to experiment to see if different types of cheese will help there, or more flour. Regardless, this recipe is a keeper for me.

I do believe there is a "typo" - as regards the oven temperature. I tried it at 350 degrees for an hour and it turned out great. This is a good dish and you can any number of your favorites - any color bell pepper, bacon, more cheese or onion. etc. Give it a try. This is now my family's favorite potato side dish.

At 250, this took considerably longer than the hour in the recipe - total time in the oven was almost 2 hours. I added about 1/2 of an onion finely chopped, and it was very good!
