Hey, guess what? My husband's family calls these "Party Potatoes" and someone from his famiy brings them every Christmas. We JUST talked about the fact that party potatoes have become a staple in our Christmas dinner (I still make mashed too). I was going to make the recipe off by memory, but now I can refer to this one. The only difference that I can see with ours is that we use Cornflakes for the top. (I think bread crumbs are nicer.)
Darlene…That is what I call them too, lol! I had that name typed in, but thought Cheesy Potatoes describe them better for those who don't know this recipe. We also go back and forth with a bread crumb topping vs cornflake topping! Love them both! I just so happened to have bread crumbs in my pantry this time! Great Minds!
I make this too and call it hashbrown casserole although I have never tried it with the bread crumbs on top. This is a delicious recipe and everyone I have made it for loves it! Sometimes we even have it at home for our family as a meal 🙂 I will refer to this recipe for the measurements too because I have it just in my head! Thank you!
We call them Holiday Hashbrowns at my house. LOL I use a can of cheddar cheese soup instead of the cheddar cheese, though. Then I sprinkle top with cheddar cheese and fried onions. It's fun to read so many variations of Y-U-M!
These look absolutely fabulous! We're doing pulled this and pulled that on rolls (sandwiches/boats) on Christmas Day, plus side dishes and desserts. I didn't have to go very far to locate a great side dish, did I?! Thanks!
Anonymous- that sounds like a great variation!!!! MMMM!!! Kelley, love pulled pork!
Not following the recipe exactly as I don't have it all on hand, but making the best we can of it for lunch today! MMMMM MMMMM. We added some dill for a different flavor twist and I loved it (dill has been a pregnancy flavor, lol). Thanks for the inspiration!
Lisa, sounds good to me! 🙂 Sometimes the best recipes come out of having things on hand and not following the exact recipe!
I cant decide if I'd like it better for breakfast as Hashbrown casserole (as I've heard it called) or as a side dish at lunch or dinner… so versatile, just like pizza!
How about adding ham to this to make it a main dish? Do you think I would need to add more liquid? This recipe looks great to take for a meal ministry. Thanks for sharing!
Yes you certainly can add ham!
we call these Mormon funeral potatoes
