Crack Potatoes Hash Brown Casserole Recipe

D

Do you need a side to make your dinner more filling or want something that you can bake to feed a crowd of people at a party? This Crack Potatoes Hash Brown Casserole recipe is a delicious recipe idea that is perfect for potlucks, gatherings or family dinners.

It is easy to prepare and never disappoints. Everything is baked in one pan, so you have fewer dishes to wash. I whipped up this casserole dish faster than my oven could even heat up to 400 degrees. It’s a cheesy, creamy, ranch-tasting side of comforting deliciousness.

There are so many tempting potato recipes in “What’s Cookin’ at First Security,” I had to start trying them. In Arkansas, we all love a good hashbrown casserole, but this one stood out to me.

Easy Peasy Pleasy Tips

  • Bust up your frozen hash browns on the counter like you would a bag of ice. No need to thaw, but you don’t want big clumps.
  • There are no raw ingredients, so you can taste-test the mixture before you bake. Adjust seasonings after you taste.
  • I mixed half the cheese into the casserole and used the other half as a topping.
  • I used about 3/4 bag of real bacon bits in the hash brown mixture and saved the rest for topping.
  • This recipe can easily be split in half and is super versatile to the seasonings you prefer.
