Frozen Four-Cheese Potatoes

Trader Joe's Scallopini Potatoes are the Perfect Thanksgiving Side

— November 13, 2020 — Lifestyle
No Thanksgiving dinner is complete without a potato-based side dish, and this year Trader Joe's has you covered with its new Scallopini Potatoes.

Frozen side dishes are perfect for Thanksgiving because they take almost no time to cook and clean up is minimal. Leaning into the frozen side dish sector, Trader Joe's has debuted new Scallopini Potatoes. This dish is made by an Italian supplier who slices several potatoes super thin and then layers them with a creamy sauce made with a blend of four kings of Italian cheese: Provolone, Montasio, Grana Padano, and Fontal. The result is a rich, savory, and goey side dish that's bursting with flavor. Best of all, the dish can be prepared in about 45 minutes in the oven, or just 11 minutes in the microwave.
