1/2 cup chopped onion
4 tbsp butter
4 tbsp all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt*
1/8 tsp pepper
1 1/4 cups milk**
3/4 cup shredded cheddar or American cheese (optional)
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (optional)
4 medium potatoes, peeled, cut in half and sliced in 1/4-inch slices

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Cook onion in butter until tender; set aside.

Stir in flour, salt and pepper then add milk all at once. Cook and stir until bubbly. Stir in cheese or bacon (if using).

Place half potatoes in a greased (I used butter flavored cooking spray) casserole. Cover with half the sauce and then repeat in layers until all is used.

Bake covered in oven at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.

Uncover and bake 30 minutes more or till potatoes are tender.

Let stand 5 minutes then serve, or cool then freeze in ziplock or gladware containers (not bags).

*If you add cheese or crumbled bacon to the sauce reduce salt to 1/4 tsp.

**The first time I froze this, I had used 3/4 cup evaporated milk and 1/2 cup regular milk only because I had some evaporated milk left over from another recipe.
