Ingredients:
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
8 medium potatoes, scrubbed and sliced ( about 2 lbs)
8 ounces cream cheese, cut in 1-inch cubes
4 scallions, finely chopped
Directions:
In a small bowl combine the scallions and the garlic.
In another small bowl, combine the salt and pepper.
In a well-buttered 3.5-qt slow cooker, layer one fourth of the sliced potatoes. Sprinkle with about 1/4 tsp of the sait and pepper, and top with one third of the cheese cubes and then one third of the scallion mixture.
Make a second layer of potatoes, sprinkle with about 1/4 tsp of the salt/pepper mix, and top with half of the remaining cheese and scallion mixtures.
Repeat with a third layer of potatoes, sprinkle another 1/4 tsp of salt/pepper mix,
and top with the remaining cheese and scallion mixtures.
Make a final layer of potatoes and sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper.
Cover and slow cook for 2 hours on high. Stir the potatoes to distribute the melting chees, cover and continue cooking until the potatoes are very tender, about 1 hour longer.
Stir the potatoes well to mash slightly and serve immediately.
