Hash Brown Potato Casserole

Teresa Ambra

Hash Brown Potato Casserole is a fabulous potato casserole recipe. It has lots of hash browns in a creamy sauce of cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and rich cheddar cheese, then sprinkled with sour cream and onion potato chips to give it a little more zip. It’s amazing with the luscious interplay of flavors. It’s also fairly quick and easy to make too. It’s one of our favorite holiday side dishes.

One holiday my daughter-in-law brought this casserole for dinner and it is a keeper! I’m not claiming this is low in calories–it’s rather more of a comfort food–but it sure is delicious. While I received this recipe from my daughter-in-law, it is all over the Internet in many versions. Perhaps this is a recipe from Ore-Ida Potatoes, but I really have no idea who created the recipe.  This is the version we like.

When I first posted this recipe in June of 2012, and then reposted the pictures in November 2013, my camera is just a cheap iPhone quality so the pictures were blurry, grainy, not properly positioned or presented, and dark and dreary. Pretty bad, huh?

It’s amazing this recipe had any pins, yet it did. I recently remade this recipe for a Christmas party (December 2014), and redid the pictures which depict this casserole in a much better light. 🙂 ha, ha!

If you’re looking for a fantastic potato casserole recipe, then give my Hash Brown Potato Casserole a try. It’s great for company dinners or holiday menus.
