Cheesy Potatoes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tbsp. butter
  • 3 slices bacon chopped (optional)
  • 1/3 cup onion minced
  • 1.5 cups whole milk
  • 1 tbsp. arrowroot powder
  • 6 – 7 medium potatoes cubed
  • 2 cup cheddar cheese preferably raw
  • ½ cup Romano cheese raw
  • 16 oz. sour cream organic
  • 2 tsp. sea salt
  • ¼ tsp. thyme
  • ¼ tsp. pepper

Method
 

  1. Cook bacon until lightly crispy.  Add butter and onion and cook until the onion is soft.
  2. Add salt, pepper, and thyme; then the flour or arrowroot.
  3. Add milk to the bacon mixture, cook, and stir until thickening.
  4. Chop your potatoes and put them in a dish (I'm doing a half batch here).
  5. Add the sour cream.
  6. Add the cheeses, reserving a small amount of cheddar for the top.   Pour the white sauce over it, too.
  7. Stir it all up and add a little cheddar to the top.
  8. Bake at 350 for an hour and a half or until the edges are bubbly and browned.  A half batch like this one only needs 45 - 60 minutes.
