Mike's Cheesy Potatoes

My Grandmother always had Christmas Eve dinner at her house.  Don’t ask me how she managed to cook meals for 35+ people every year, but she did.  It was amazing.  When she got sick, my brother Michael went to visit her every single Monday to take her out to dinner.  Literally - every Monday night.  He’s the greatest person I know.  After she passed, Michael started bringing her cheesy potatoes to family dinners.  He shared the recipe with his little sister, and for that, I’m so grateful.  It’s simple, but a crowd-pleasing dish.  And, as an added bonus, it always makes me think of Granny.
