I saw this recipe in Prevention magazine (Apr. 2010) and decided to try it because it looked simpler (and maybe healthier?) than the recipe from my Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. However, the recipe from Better Homes and Gardens was really good, so if this doesn't match up, I'll be returning to that one. :)
2 lbs all-purpose potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 1/4 cup grated Cheddar cheese (5 oz)
3/4 cup milk
2 Tbsp olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Set oven rack to top position.
2. Layer potatoes and cheese in a well-oiled 8in. x 8in. baking dish, ending with cheese on top. Season each potato layer with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
3. Pour in milk. Drizzle oil over potatoes and cheese.
4. Bake on top rack of oven until bubbly and golden, about 1 hour 15 minutes.

This was good - definitely not as creamy as the BH&G recipe, but still good. I did, however, probably use almost double the amount of cheese it called for, so it was kind of greasy (but also delicious)... so not sure if it's actually any healthier than the creamy version. :) But it was definitely easier to make, so that's a plus. The fresh ground pepper also made it really good.
