I have to make 10 lbs worth, and not be able to use the oven where we are going.

any ideas, please?

 
Here's a recipe posted by Marsha Tbay.

I haven't tried this recipe, but it sounds easy and good.

Crockpot...Potatoes Europhoria

Note from the author: I do not name this
recipe lightly. It has the best elements of
your favorite potato dishes - the melting
texture of mashed potatoes, the creaminess of
scalloped potatoes, and the tang of sour
cream-topped baked potatoes. It is so
tempting that is one of those recipes for
which an exact serving estimate is impossible
to give.

4 scallions, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
8 medium boiling potatoes (about 2 pounds),
scrubbed and sliced into 1/8 inch thick
rounds
8 ounces cream cheese, cut into 1 inch cubes

In a small bowl, combine the scallions and
garlic.

In a well buttered 3 1/2 quart slow
cooker, layer one fourth or the sliced
potatoes. Sprinkle with about 1/4 tsp of the
salt and pepper, and top with one third of
the cheese cubes, then one third of the
scallion mixture.

Make a second layer of potatoes, sprinkle
with salt and pepper and top with half of the
remaining cheese and scallion/mix. Repeat
with a third layer of potatoes, salt and
pepper, top with the remaining cheese and
scallion. Make a final layer of potatoes and
season with salt and pepper.

Cover and low cook for 2 hours on high
(300F). Stir the potatoes to distribute the
melting cheese, cover and continue
slow-cooking until the potatoes are very
tender, about 1 hour longer.
Stir the potatoes well to mash slightly and
serve immediately.

> He recommends using the high setting
for this dish - maybe it could work cooking
longer on low, if that is easier for your
cooking schedule. This comes from a recipe book called Crockpot Ready and Waiting

I have, and I think that is the one time that the milk got too hot and it

separated - but on LOW, you should have no problem.

 
I may try this, but I'm ocncerned about the middle of a 5 quart

crockpot getting cooked enough in the middle.
My back-up plan will be to make regular scalloped potatoes (per my sister's request) and just scoop them into a hot crockpot to her house, where they can be kept on low. Geeze.
