For a seniors potluck at church, I wanted to create a recipe that would incorporate a meat dish and side dish in one. This casserole proved to be a crowd-pleaser, and many people asked for the recipe. -Joann Fritzler, Belen, New Mexico

I'm not a fan of cheese, so I omitted it from the recipe. It was still delicious!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my hash browns turned out soggy. I think I might have added too much milk.

This meatball hash brown bake was a hit with my family! The meatballs were flavorful and moist, and the hash browns were crispy and golden brown. The cheese sauce was the perfect finishing touch.
