Author Notes

Tartiflette is a staple winter dish in France, originating from from the Savoie region of the Alps. Traditionally it is made with Reblochon cheese, but one day I was craving it and didn't feel like going to the grocery store but realized I had most of the ingredients if I used a different type of cheese. From then the recipe has evolved into what it is today. —Melissa P
