Nourishment Note

Nutmeg

Nutmeg is a spice and may act as a nausea reducer. It also contains antioxidants to help protect healthy cells.

Full-Fat Dairy

Full-fat dairy products, such as cheese, cream, and whole milk, are high in calories. A high-calorie diet may be necessary if unwanted weight-loss is occurring. Dairy also provides important nutrients such as calcium, potassium, and vitamin D.

    Wash Hands Wash hands and all cooking surfaces with soap and warm water before beginning.

    Preheat Oven & Coat Skillet Preheat oven to 425°F. Using a piece of butter, generously rub the inside of the skillet, evenly coating the bottom and sides. Rub the garlic clove over the inside of the skillet.

  • 3

    Heat Skillet Heat the skillet over medium-high heat.

  • 4

    Combine Cheese Combine the mozzarella and asiago cheese in a mixing bowl.

    Cook Potatoes To the heated skillet, spread half the potatoes to evenly cover the bottom of the skillet. Sprinkle ¾ teaspoon salt over the potatoes, half the cut-up butter, half the cheese mixture, and pepper, to taste. Layer the remaining potatoes.

  • 6

    Add Cream & Seasoning Pour the cream over the potatoes. Sprinkle the nutmeg, bay leaves, and remaining butter pieces. Allow to simmer for 3-4 minutes.

  • 7

    Add Remaining Cheese Sprinkle the remaining cheese mixture and parmesan cheese over the dish.

  • 8

    Transfer Skillet to Oven Using an oven-mitt, carefully transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. (If you don’t have an oven-proof skillet, transfer the potatoes to a buttered 9x13-inch baking dish.)

  • 9

    Bake & Serve Bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, about 25 minutes. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Discard the bay leaves before consuming.
