Low-Fat Au Gratin Potatoes

The pan you use for this makes all the differrence. You need some sort of shallow ceramic pan with a lot of surface area. Maybe a lasagna pan. If all else fails use a shallow disposable aluminum pan.
Preheat oven to 350.
slice 2.5 lbs yukon gold potatoes very thinly - i used a food processor
line the bottom of the pan with a layer of potatoes
cover with shredded cheese of your choice - i used 2% milk mexican (as long as it doesn't contain hot peppers)
sprinkle with salt and a little black pepper
cover with another layer of potatoes, then cheese and so on
on the last two top layers dot with butter ( I used smart balance)
Once it is assembled carefully pour two cans of evaporated skim milk over the layers
bake for at least 1.5 hours
serve with turkey meatloaf
possible additions: onions and or green peppers
ham
