EASTER DINNER: CHEESY POTATOES
I am pulling a recipe out of the Hutchinson family vault to share with you guys today. My mother-in-law Sandi, has made this recipe for as long as I can remember. It is one of Steve's absolute favorites, in fact it is even in the NFL wives cookbook, it's that good. Sandi calls these potatoes "funeral potatoes", but that felt a little depressing, but I guess appropriate based on the occasion. Whatever you want to call them, I can guarantee that they will become a regular on your family's holiday table. Hope you all enjoy them as much as we do!
