I love when I can put potatoes in the slow cooker and have them ready to serve when it is time to eat supper. These Slow Cooker Rustic Au Gratin Potatoes turned out so creamy and delicious. Layer the potatoes, onions and cheese sauce in the slow cooker and cook on low for about 7 hours and they are ready to eat. I love how the sauce is thick and sticks to the potatoes. These are made with cream cheese giving this recipe a nice different kind of cheese flavor. If you want to, you can replace the cream cheese with cheddar cheese for an entirely different tasting recipe.

  8. I use a slow cooker often. There is nothing like coming home to a house filled with the smell of delicious food. I make quite a lot of beans in my slow cooker, but I will definitely give your potato dish a try! Thanks for all of the great recipes. Happy Holidays.
