And your scalloped potatoes, yum. I've never added cheese to scalloped before. I say, why not? Au gratin yes.

I generally pick medium size russet potatoes and small red ones... but sometimes the curb side pickup people give me absolutely huge potatoes, onions, and/or apples. Didn't even know some of those grew that large...

No grains (except corn, barley, oats and amaranth), not gluten. Yeast of all things. So I'm drooling over that photo of the bread and trying to remember now that it will be my CHOICE whether I disregard the naturopathic doctor's instructions to eliminate all the foods I have an intolerance to or not (and waste the absurd amount of money I've had to spend in the past six months if I choose to ignore -- lol). <br /><br />In other words: Your post about choice is timely!!!!

The first time I made them I filled 4 little ramekins and had enough to fill a small square pan on the side. I just like the individuals as sometimes grandson likes to eat in the middle of the night and then he can just take it out and warm it up. <br />As for the evaporated milk - some of our feral cats are addicted to it. We can give them canned food and treats.. but they'll hold out for their cream.
