    You can add chicken to this and serve it with a veggie for a nice meal too.

    One time I heard someone ask, what's I'n funeral potatoes, anyway? And I heard my OWN husband reply,"I don't know. Dead people?" by the way, try doing half captain crunch cereal half corn flakes, or crumbs for a sweeter crumbly top. I always get rave reviews for using it on Mac n cheese or other casseroles. Thanks for the recipe!

    I was given this recipe several years ago, under the name of "Nauvoo Potatoes" before it became known as Funeral Potatoes... It perhaps got the reputation as being of Mormon origin and getting the tag of Funeral because it was such an easy dish to prepare for the families after the services were complete... We like to help the families on such a sad day...We provide a full meal for them at the church recreation hall so they don't have to cook for a large crowd on an already busy day...

    This is a great dish to serve whenever you are having a ham dinner. I have known these as funeral potatoes and known it as a mormon dish ever since I was about 15 and am now 62. Who really cares! It is delicious!

    This sounds delish. I have eaten something similiar so it's not just a Mormon dish.

    I was wondering if anyone had ever tried a reduced fat version of funeral potatoes? If so how did it turn out?

    My sons are 17 and 21 years old and have never know these potatos by any other name. I am sure that they will some day tell their children how great these are. Everyone should try them!

    This is kind of funny, but not really: I just left a comment yesterday and I've never referred to this recipe as "funeral potatoes" but today I got a call to make them for a funeral dinner on Monday. Kind of weird, huh?

    This is a great recipe. Around here, it's not a true potluck dinner if noone brings Cheesy Potatoes (that's what they're called here). It's also a staple recipe at my house, I just cut the ingredients down and make it in an 8" square pan for my small family.
