Buffet Potatoes

Buffet Potatoes is a great recipe from my Aunt Jane Watson.  We had this at almost every holiday family gathering since I was little.  Everybody likes it, no leftovers on this one I swear.

Buffet Potatoes

2 lbs baby red potatoes
1 tsp salt
3 Tbsp snipped parsely
1 small onion, chopped
3/4 C shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3 Tbsp butter or margarine
3/4 C half and half

Scrub and slice the potatoes in about 1/4 inch slices.  Arrange ingredients in 3 layers in a greased 2 quart casserole dish.  Start with potatoes, topping each layer with a dash of pepper and 1/3 each of the salt, parsely, onion and cheese.  Then dot with butter and pour half and half over the whole thing.  Cover and bake at 325 degrees F for an 1 hr and 10 minutes or at 350 F for an hour.  Uncover and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes longer.  Serves 6-8.  This recipe doubles well.
