How to make cheesy potatoes
Start by peeling the potatoes, then slice them very thinly, about 0.12 inches thick.
Oil a baking dish and sprinkle it with breadcrumbs.
Arrange the zucchini next to each other, slightly overlapping.
Next, fill them with grated scamorza, grated parmesan, breadcrumbs, and a drizzle of oil. Bake in the oven at 374°F for about 15 minutes.
Storage and variations of cheesy potatoes
They can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge until the next day. They can be prepared well in advance and cooked at the moment. You can create new combinations by substituting or adding other cheeses such as scamorza, provolone, or gorgonzola.
