Delicious, Dairy Free Au Gratin Potatoes

I LOOOOOOOOVE Au Gratin potatoes and I don't make them very often, because honestly, I'd eat the whole pan myself, if I was left alone in our house. I made this recipe for a family dinner last Saturday, and they are SO yummy, and not that difficult. They honestly are some of the best au…
