Suzy's Cheesy Potatoes


At a family reunion this summer, Hubby's cousin's daughters were chatting about Cheesy Potatoes saying things like, "they are so good I can eat the whole pan", and "we're hoping Suzy will bring a big batch" and "can't wait for the potatoes".

At mealtime I was able to scrape out one teaspoon of Cheesy Potatoes from the bottom of the dish, because that was all that was left of this delicious side dish. My son got about a tablespoon and Hubby didn't get any :(


Many thanks to Meadow and Willow for telling me great things about Cheesy Potatoes and special thanks to Suzzanne Campbell, for sharing her Cheesy Potatoes recipe with us, a new family favorite :)

Cheesy Potatoes

Note: This recipe is for 1 batch.  Suzy often doubles or triples it for a potluck.

2 lb. shredded hash browns
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 stick butter melted
8 oz. sour cream
12 oz. shredded cheddar cheese, plus about 2 oz. to sprinkle on top
about 5oz. of milk (or 1/2 of the soup can)
season as desired with onion powder, salt, pepper

Mix ingredients in a large bowl until combined then place in baking dish coated with cooking spray.
Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes, sprinkle top with cheddar cheese, continue baking for 10 minutes.

p.s. I reduced butter to 3/4 stick and added 1/2 cup double cheese Ragu sauce for the cheesiest.
