Creamy Hash Browns taste as delicious as they sound and are super easy to whip up!
On Friday night, I had a bag of Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns that needed to be used. I had all of the ingredients to make the Cheesy Hash BrownCasserole, but I wasn’t quite in the mood for that. So I changed it up a bit to give it a more sophisticated flavor. I used Monterrey Jack cheese instead of cheddar and used the garlic breadcrumb topping mixture from the Ricotta Parmesan Chicken. I made a big batch when I made the chicken, so I just kept it in the freezer for nights I might need some in a pinch!
I also made it in 3 smaller ramekins instead of one larger casserole dish. You could make it however you want. A friend of mine added chicken and baked it in a larger dish. She said ham would be great also. The possibilities are endless. I like how the Monterrey Jack cheese gave it a creamy, cheesy consistency and the garlic breadcrumbs really worked well with the potatoes.
It was more “grown-up” than the cornflakes bathed in butter. I don’t think I’ll ever make it the old way again! Put this one on the dinner table. It’s awesome!
