1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup flour
2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
3 cups milk
3 cups ham, cooked
1 large green pepper, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
5 cups potates, pared and sliced

1. Melt butter in large sauce pan over low heat; blend in flour, salt and pepper.

2. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute. Remove from heat and gradually stir in milk.

3. Return to heat; cook until thickened and bubbly.

4. Fold in ham, onion, green pepper and cheese. Pour over potatoes in large bowl.

5. Stir gently then move into a buttered 9 x 13 baking dish; cover with foil.

*I use more than a 1/2 cup of cheese but you can use whatever suits you. I don't really measure it. I just pour it in. I like it a little cheesier.

This sounds great, Jessica!

Thank you!

Thanks for the recipe Jessica,, I love scalloped tator's, My grandmother made the best,, But I never got her recipe,, I've tried so many s.p recipes! I'll try yours It seems no matter what recipe you use it just doesn't turn out like Grandma's.

I know what you mean Diane! I have tried a lot of recipes too and this one is my favorite so I have kept on making it. Hope you two like it!

Dang it I was gonna make this today But I didn't have any flour! I guess I'll cook cabbage instead,, I can't believe I didn't get flour when I was grocery shopping the other day
Good thing I didn't already cut up the tator's.

Good thing! Let me know how you like it if you try it.

I'm making this today finally!!!

Finished Jessica ,, I may have left in about 10 minutes too long,, they got a little browner then I would have liked but they taste great,, this recipe is a keeper
BTW I didn't have green bell peppers so I used Red Bell peppers instead :wink:

Yummy! I am hungry looking at it! Glad to hear that you liked it. It is my favorite out of all the ones I have tried so far. I might have to make that soon!

sounds good, Jessica. And what is better it sounds easy!!!

I have just sent it to myself I will copy it for my files.

It is very easy!
