Scalloped Potatoes are usually reserved for those special occasions because they are a little more time-consuming than say.
Mashed potatoes or a potato casserole but are probably more delicious than them both because they are laced with a homemade, buttery cream sauce, browned onions, and topped with cheddar cheese.
