Mormon Scalloped Potatoes are a beloved potluck and holiday staple in the United States, especially in the Mormon community. This side dish is hearty, flavorful, and sure to satisfy even the pickiest eaters. The use of cream of chicken soup and sour cream creates a creamy and rich sauce that pairs perfectly with the tender slices of potato. The chopped green onion adds a hint of freshness and a pop of color. The crispy and buttery cornflake topping adds a delightful crunch to each bite. This dish is perfect for a cozy family dinner or a large gathering of friends and relatives.
