I'm a home health nurse and got this recipe from one of my elderly clients, who had used it for years. Now, it's one of my family's favorites. It will never curdle, thanks to the secret ingredient of powdered nondairy creamer. You can serve this homey favorite for just 85¢ per serving. Ingredients:
3/4 cup powdered nondairy creamer |
1-3/4 cups water |
3 tablespoons butter |
3 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons dried minced onion |
1 teaspoon salt |
3/4 teaspoon paprika |
6 large potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced |
2 cups diced fully cooked ham |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine creamer and water until smooth. In a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in the flour, onion, salt and paprika until smooth; gradually add creamer mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened.
2. In a greased shallow 2-1/2-qt. baking dish, combine potatoes and ham. Pour sauce over the top.
3. Cover and bake at 350° for 15 minutes. Uncover; bake 40-50 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender. Sprinkle with cheese; bake for 5-10 minutes or until edges are bubbly and cheese is melted. Yield: 6 servings.
