Ingredients
  • 1 (32 oz) package frozen hash browns, thawed (I hadn't noticed the thawed so it explains why the middle was still frozen the last time I cooked this. A few minutes in the microwave took care of that. So if you forget to thaw the potatoes, bake this a while longer. )
  • 1/2 cup melted butter or margarine (real butter really makes them taste good, the hell with cholesterol and trans fats)
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 12 grated cheddar cheese (I guesstimate this, you can't have too much cheese)
  • 1 cup sour cream (are you getting a theme here?, you can just hear your arteries slam shut while you eat it)
  • 1 tsp salt (moderation in something)
  • 1/2 small onion, chopped
  • Topping
  • 2 cups crushed crackers (I got tired of crushing crackers so I used plain bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter (gets better and better)

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350. Mix together the all the ingredients except for those in the topping. Spread in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. I used a 2/12 qt. oval casserole and also sprayed it with Pam before using it to prevent sticking. Or you could grease the bottom of the pan or casserole.
  2. Mix crushed crackers and melted butter. Sprinkle over the potato mixture. Bake 40-45 minutes. Serves 12-14 (in your dreams, this is so good everybody wants more).

This sounds similar to a pork chop and hash brown casserole I make for dinner sometimes. This sounds equally great at that!


I prefered crushed crackers to bread crumbs.
Used only half of the dose of crackers, a little more sour cream and soup and more cheese.
At a pot luck breakfast, it was gone in no time!!!!

Fixing the above will give you a great side dish. However, if you want a hearty meal, add sausage. I used one 1 lb. chub of sausage which really wasn't enough. I recommend using 2 lbs. bulk sausage. I crumbled it into a casserole and microwaved it until it was cooked. Then I drained the sausage while I mixed up the rest of the casserole and added the sausage with the other ingredients. (Hint: crumbling the sausage is a lot easier before it is cooked than afterwards. Might as well learn from my mistakes. Also, the 2 ½ quart casserole overflowed so I used a bigger casserole dish the next time. Easier than cleaning burned stuff out of the oven.

Enjoy.


Ok I made this again and think it would be better if we take out the bread crumbs on top because it made it bland and I'd increase the sour cream and soup. :)


I am not a sausage eater...but I make this casserole with hamburger and it is a great supper that reheats well too
