Scalloped Red Potatoes

 ³ We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing. ⁴ Therefore, among God’s churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring.2 Thessalonians 1

Ingredients:
5 large red potatoes sliced thinly

1/2 large leek sliced thinly

2 oz. butter (1/2 stick)
2 tsp salt
1/2 cup cream
1/2 cup milk
1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions:
1. fry the leek in the butter under medium heat for ~ 5 minutes
2. add the cream, milk, and salt and bring to a boil; set aside

3. layer potatoes, cheese, and cream mixture (~ 3 repeats of each) in deep baking pan

5. cover pan with foil and bake for ~1 hr at 350 degrees F (for some reason it took ~2 hrs for this to bake in our oven; so check after 1 hr and every 15 minutes afterwards until the potatoes are baked thoroughly)
