Ham with scalloped potatoes and carrots

I LOVE ham and scalloped potatoes and this recipe adds a veggie so its just two dishes!

Scalloped Potatoes and Carrots

• 2 1/2 pounds potatoes peeled and sliced. * I use red so I don't have to peel...call it lazy but I call it using all the vitamins and minerals in the peel*
• 5 med carrots, cut into 1/4 inch slices
• 1 1/2 cups sliced onions
• 2 cups boiling water
• CHEESE SAUCE
• 3 tbs butter
• 2 tbs flour
• 1/8 tsp pepper
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided

In a large dutch oven, combine potatoes, carrots, onions, and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and cook for 10 minutes.  Meanwhile in a saucepan, melt butter. Remove from heat and stir in flour and pepper until smooth. Gradually stir in  milk. Bring to a boil over med-high heat , stirring constantly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Stir in one cup cheese. Reduce hear and stir until cheese is melted.
Drain the vegetable, layer half in a greased 3qt baking dish. Top with half of the cheese sauce. Repeat layers. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Cover and  bake at 375 for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake 10 minutes more or until potatoes are tender.

I doubled the cheese sauce and added crushed red pepper to the sauce. As for the ham.. sliced and put in a fry pan with some EVO and warm it up.
It was a hit with all and was told I could make it again *l*
