kraft kitchens tips

Two-Tone Scalloped Potatoes

Prepare as directed, substituting sweet potatoes for half the Yukon gold potatoes.

How to Purchase Potatoes

Look for firm, smooth, well-shaped potatoes that are free of wrinkles, cracks and blemishes. Avoid any with green-tinged skins or sprouting "eyes" or buds.

Variation

Prepare using Philadelphia Light Brick Cream Cheese Spread, skim milk and Kraft Double Cheddar Light Shredded Cheese.

It was a big hit in my house, we made it with the Maple Balsamic Ham both were very yummy. Will definitely make both again.

Served this with a wonderful ham for Easter. It was great! My family's only suggestion was that it needed more cheese. Next time I'll add another cup on top about 10 minutes before it's done.

I also made this for one of our Easter dinners with family and it was a hit!! What attracted me to this recipe was the maple! It adds such a wonderful flavour to all foods that we try to incorporate it when we cook. Also, who doesnt like Bacon!! Great combination of ingredients for an amazing dish. I will definitely be making this again!!

It was okay...a little dry so I would add more liquids if I make it again.

I made this for Easter Sunday and tripled the recipe so there would be enough for everybody. By far the highlight of the meal!!! The maple was an excellent compliment to the ham! Definitely a new tradition in my household!!

Awesome - I have made this recipe many times and it is always a crowd pleaser... I have also made it with herb and garlic cream cheese because I didn't have any regular, and it was still delicious...

Love scalloped potatoes, maple syrup and bacon so this recipe really appealed to me. Not one family member liked it. The cream cheese and cheddar just did not go together.....ewwwww
