Cheesy, rich, and buttery, this irresistible small-yield recipe comes to us from our Betty Crocker Right Size Recipes—Delicious Meals for One or Two cookbook. Using potato wedges instead of thin slices makes this recipe super easy to throw together. And the addition of decadent Gruyère cheese and chives adds a delicious touch of sophisticated elegance to classic au gratin potatoes. It’s one of those exceptional dishes that’s perfect for both a festive holiday spread and a cozy weeknight dinner.

What do you pair with something so delicious? Serve this cheesy goodness with your best glazed ham recipe or roasted turkey breast or go casual and spoon it up next to your favorite meatloaf, pork chops or your favorite shredded beef sandwiches.

    Gruyère cheese adds a complex flavor to the sauce, but other cheeses work too. Try shredded Swiss, Emmental or other cheese you may have on hand.
