Leek, Bacon & Cheddar Gratin



We love leeks around here! This is a riff on Jacques Pepin's delicious leek gratin recipe. 

It bakes up melty, creamy and bubbly, with the smoky flavor of the bacon complimenting the sweet leeks. It's wonderful alongside roast chicken. Great with roast beef, meatloaf or pot roast too.
