Easy Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes

I have ham left over from this weekend and a huge bag of potatoes that I'd like to get rid of. Not to mention 3 blocks of cream cheese I was going to use for a cheesecake only to decide against it after the purchase had been made. So this recipe is perfect and has everything that I already have in my kitchen.

Jiffy Muffin Mix


"Quality and Value since 1930"
And it looks like that is how old this box is but it's actually good! It only costs about 50 cents per box and they give other recipes on the side.
They have a good variety including Raspberry and Blueberry and make easy and wonderful Sunday muffins.
Try 'em out! You won't regret it!
