Salsa Scalloped Potatoes

   This was my food experiment last weekend. With just a few extra ingredients, I thought I could give new life and taste to a classic standby dish, scalloped potatoes. The flavors turned out to be a great combination. I was a little skeptical at first, but I shouldn't have worried. Except for the green chilies and cilantro, which I don't always have on hand, these are pretty staple kitchen items and easy to combine. The prep time is minimal so this made it easy to focus on the main course.

Salsa Scalloped Potatoes

1 box scalloped potatoes

2 cups boiling water

1/2 cup milk

1 T. butter

1/2 cup salsa

1/4 cup sour cream

1/4 cup shredded cheese

1 small can green chilies

1 T. cilantro (or parsley)

Preheat oven to temperature indicated on box (400). In a greased 8x8x2 baking dish, combine potatoes, butter, water, milk and potato seasoning mix. Stir well. Add remaining ingredients, stirring to combine. Bake 35-40 minutes until potatoes are tender. Serves 6. Recipe can be doubled using 13x9x2 baking dish.
