SLOW COOKER FUNERAL POTATOES (HASH BROWN CASSEROLE)



Slow Cooker Funeral Potatoes (Hash Brown Casserole) image

The hash brown casserole (aka funeral potatoes) have always been a food day favorite at my work but the topic came up and I discovered that my husband had never had it. I needed my oven for other things so I came up with this slow cooker version. I also chose to use potato chips over the traditional cereal topping but either will work.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of potatoes. This will give your casserole a more interesting texture and flavor. Good options include Yukon Gold, red potatoes, and russet potatoes.
  • Shred the cheese yourself. Pre-shredded cheese contains additives that can prevent it from melting smoothly. Shredding your own cheese will ensure that it melts evenly and creates a gooey, flavorful sauce.
  • Use a slow cooker liner. This will make cleanup a breeze. Simply remove the liner from the slow cooker and discard it when you're finished.
  • Don't overcook the casserole. The potatoes should be tender but still hold their shape. Overcooking will make them mushy.
  • Serve the casserole immediately. This is when it will be at its best. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but they may not be as creamy and flavorful.

Conclusion:

This slow cooker cheese and potato casserole is a hearty and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy sauce, tender potatoes, and melted cheese, this casserole is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
